Angelou began, early in her writing career, alternating the publication of an autobiography and a volume of poetry. By the time And Still I Rise was published in 1978, she had published three autobiographies, eventually going on to publish seven. In 1993, she read her poem  On the Pulse of Morning  at President Bill Clinton's inauguration.
Up from a past thatâs rooted in pain. I rise. Iâm a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Leaving behind nights of terror and fear. I rise. Into a daybreak thatâs wondrously clear. I rise. Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise. I rise. I rise. This is probably Maya Angelouâs best-known poem, and for good reason.
