BIOGRAPHY
Robert Frost (1874-1963) was born in San Francisco but from the age of ten lived in New England. He attended Dartmouth College briefly, then became a teacher, but soon decided to resume his formal training and enrolled at Harvard. He left Harvard after two years without a degree, and for several years supported himself and his growing family by tending a farm his grandfather bought for him. When he was not farming, he read and wrote intensively, though he received little recognition. Discouraged by his lack of success, he sold the farm and moved his family to England, where he published his first volumes of poetry, A Boy's Will (1913) and North of Boston (1914).

After three years in England, Frost returned to America a recognized poet. Later volumes, notably Mountain Interval (1916), New Hampshire (1923), West-Running Brook (1928), and A Further Range (1936), won Frost numerous awards, including two Pulitzer Prizes, and a wide popularity. By the time he delivered his poem "The Gift Outright" at the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy in 1961, Frost had achieved the status of unofficial poet laureate of America, widely revered and beloved for his folksy manner and seemingly artless, accessible poems.
