Answer

Anne Bradstreet, a prominent colonial-era poet from the 17th century, was the mother of eight children. Her large family was a reflection of the societal expectations of the time and the high infant mortality rates during that period. Despite the challenges of raising a large family in the colonial frontier, Bradstreet still managed to achieve literary success and become one of America's first published poets.
