About the Author

Robert Frost (1874-1963) was a well–known American poet whose poetry was often inspired by the rural life of the 1900's New England. One of the most celebrated poets of the 20th century, Frost received four Pulitzer Prizes and many other awards. His first poetry collection, A Boy's Will, was published in 1913. Some of Robert Frost's most famous poems include "The Road Not Taken", "Fire and Ice", "Nothing Gold Can Stay", "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" and "Mending Wall". Although he was born in San Francisco, Frost lived in Great Britain for several years before settling in New England. Robert Frost also taught at various colleges and universities. His poetry is still widely read, and many of his poems are studied in classrooms worldwide.
