Description

Robert Lee Frost was born March 26, 1874 in San Francisco. He was a very successful writer and poet. Having sold his first poem, My Butterfly, to "The New York Independent" for $15 in 1894, he was on his way to becoming the most celebrated poet in North America, winning the Pulitzer Prize four times (still a record).
