1874 - 1963

A distinguished American poet by recognition and a Vermonter by preference, Robert Frost was Poet Laureate of Vermont and for many years "First Citizen" of the Town of Ripton. He was long associated with the Middlebury College School of English and its Writers' Conference.

"Breathes there a bard who isn't moved

When he finds his verse is understood

And not entirely disapproved

By his Country and his Neighbourhood?"

Robert Frost, 1961
