Biographical/Historical Information

Robert Lee Frost (born March 26, 1874 in San Francisco, Calif., died January 29, 1963 in Boston Mass.), was one of America's leading 20th-century poets and a four-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize.

The Frost family moved to Massachusetts in 1885, following Frost's father's death. Frost graduated from Lawrence High School in 1892 and entered Dartmouth College, where he remained less than one semester. Frost returned to Massachusetts where he taught school and worked in a mill and as a newspaper reporter. In 1894 he sold "My Butterfly: an Elegy" to The Independent, a New York literary journal. He married Elinor White in 1895. From 1897 to 1899 he attended Harvard College as a special student but left without a degree. Over the next ten years he wrote (but rarely published) poems, operated a farm in Derry, New Hampshire (purchased for him by his paternal grandfather), and supplemented his income by teaching at Derry's Pinkerton Academy.

In 1912, at the age of 38, he sold the farm and used the proceeds to take his family to England, where he could devote himself entirely to writing. His efforts to establish himself and his work were almost immediately successful. A Boy's Will was accepted by a London publisher and brought out in 1913, followed a year later by North of Boston. Favorable reviews on both sides of the Atlantic resulted in American publication of the books by Henry Holt and Company, Frost's primary American publisher, and in the establishing of Frost's transatlantic reputation.

The Frosts returned to the United States in February 1915 and landed in New York City two days after the U.S. publication of North of Boston, the first of his books to be published in America. Sales of that book and of A Boy's Will enabled Frost to buy a farm in Franconia, N.H.; to place new poems in literary periodicals and publish a third book, Mountain Interval (1916); and to embark on a long career of writing, teaching, and lecturing. In 1924 he received a Pulitzer Prize in poetry for New Hampshire (1923). He received the Pulitzer again for Collected Poems (1930), A Further Range (1936), and A Witness Tree (1942). Over the years he received an unprecedented number and range of literary, academic, and public honors.
