Founded in 1994 by Donna Hollenberg and Eileen Gregory as the H.D. Society, the Society was renamed the H.D. International Society at the 1997 Business Meeting. Membership in the Society is open to anyone with an interest in H.D. and her work.

Society members share resources and information, establish collaborations, and support the production of scholarly and creative responses to H.D. and members of her circle. There are no membership fees for the H.D. International Society. We just ask that you join HDSociety-group@uncc.edu, the H.D. Society Google Group.

Affiliated with the American Literature Association and with the Society for the Study of American Women Writers, the H.D. International Society sponsors activities such as panels at conferences (see the News and Updates page for H.D. related events) and HDSociety-group@uncc.edu the Hilda Doolittle Society Discussion List.

We also use the hashtag #HDModernist on X, formerly Twitter.

The Society consists of co-chairs, volunteers for specific tasks, and an advisory board which includes many past chairs of the society.
