David O'Neil (July 23, 1874[1] – 1947), also Dave O'Neil was an American poet of the early 20th century. Born in St. Louis, Missouri, O'Neil received the LL.B. from the law school in Washington University. He was married in 1903. He retired from the lumber business, at which he had made a fortune, at age 48, and moved with his family, to Paris. O'Neil and his wife Barbara were close friends of Ernest Hemingway and his first wife Hadley, who had known O'Neil from St. Louis, and Hemingway wrote an acidulous sketch based on O'Neil.[2] O'Neil published only one volume of poems, 1918's A Cabinet of Jade, the title suggested by Zoë Akins.[3] He also contributed to a number of influential poetry reviews of the day, including The Little Review and Poetry. He co-edited the 1923 book, Today's Poetry: An Anthology, with Nelson Crawford.
