Not only was Frank O'Hara one of the most important American poets of his generation, he was also intimately involved with the art world of the 1950s and 1960s, a time when New York had become the cultural capital of the world. As an associate curator at the Museum of Modern Art, O'Hara organized a series of important exhibitions, notably of the work of Franz Kline and of Robert Motherwell.

Frank O'Hara died after being struck by a vehicle in the dunes on Fire Island, New York, in 1966. The Museum of Modern Art published In Memory of My Feelings in 1967 to honor its late curator. Poet Bill Berkson, who edited the book, invited thirty artists who had known O'Hara to 'illustrate' a selection of his poems. The selection of artwork in this case shows the variety of' styles within the New York School of artists.
