About the Poet
Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 – January 29, 1963) was an American poet. His
work was initially published in England before it was published in America. Known for
his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial
[2]
speech, Frost frequently wrote about settings from rural life in New England in the
early twentieth century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical
themes.
Frost was honoured frequently during his lifetime and is the only poet to receive
four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry. He became one of America's rare "public literary
figures, almost an artistic institution." He was awarded the Congressional Gold
Medal in 1960 for his poetic works. On July 22, 1961, Frost was named poet
laureate of Vermont.
