Robert Frost's Birth Anniversary


 

Robert Frost, born on March 26, 1874, was an American poet, known for his representations of rural life in ways which explored social and political themes with an emphasis on American colloquial speech. He holds a record for receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry within his lifetime.

Frost's grandfather bought a farm for him and his wife, which Frost worked for nine years while writing poetry in the mornings. His farming enterprise proved ultimately unsuccessful, but he wrote many of his most famous poems during this period.

While Frost moved with his family to England in 1912, they would return during World War I. He then went on to work as a teacher at Amherst College in Massachusetts, Middlebury College in Vermont, and the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
