Robert Frost (1874-1963)
Robert Lee Frost was an American poet. He is highly regarded for his realistic
depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech.
His work frequently employed settings from rural life in New England
in the early twentieth century, using them to examine complex social and
philosophical themes. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored
frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry.
