The reaction {pi}{sup -} p {yields} {omega}{pi}{sup -} p, {omega} {yields} {pi}{sup +} {pi}{sup -} {pi}{sup 0} has been studied at 18 GeV/c. The {omega}{pi}{sup -} mass spectrum is found to be dominated by the b{sub 1}(1235). Partial Wave Analysis shows that b{sub 1} production is dominated by natural parity exchange. The S-wave and D-wave amplitudes for b{sub 1}(1235) {yields} {omega}{pi} have been determined, and it is found that the amplitude ratio, |D/S| = 0.269 {+-} (0.009){sub stat} {+-} (0.01){sub sys} and the phase difference, {phi}(D-S) = 10.54{sup o} {+-} (2.4{sup o}){sub stat} {+-} (3.9){sub sys}.
