Poetry is a way of taking life by the throat.
—Simpson’s Contemporary Quotations (7166)
Robert Frost
1874–1963, American poet, b. San Francisco. Perhaps the most popular and beloved of 20th-century American poets, Frost wrote of the character, people, and landscape of New England. In 1912 he went to England, where he received his first acclaim as a poet. After the publication of A Boy’s Will (1913) and North of Boston (1914), he returned to the United States, settling on a farm near Franconia, N.H. Frost taught and lectured at several universities, including Amherst, Harvard, and the Univ. of Michigan.—Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. Copyright © 2002 Columbia University Press.
