The life of the famous poet Dickenson can be described as anything but interesting, but her poetry is what she is most widely known for. That is the best revision I can come up with.

Was is a 'be' verb. Your sentence is passive and you spelled Dickinson wrong.

Although Emily Dickinson's poetry has gotten her recognized she led a life that was hardly interesting
