Frost Won Four Pulitzer Prizes

Frost was chosen as Vermont's Poet Laureate by the Vermont State League of Women's Clubs in June 1922. When a New York Times editorial sharply condemned the Women's Clubs' choice, Sarah Cleghorn and other women defended Frost in letters to the publication. By means of Joint Resolution R-59 of the Acts of 1961, which also established the office, Frost was appointed Vermont's Poet Laureate on July 22, 1961.

Frost, a genuine literary genius, won the coveted Pulitzer Prize four times; he is still the only person to have done so. For the enhanced version of “New Hampshire”, he earned his first one in 1923. Seven years later, with his book “Collected Poems”, he received another award. With “A Further Range” and “A Witness Tree”, he won his third and fourth Pulitzers, respectively.

Despite not winning a Pulitzer, his other efforts were just as noteworthy. They consist of “In the Clearing”, “Steeple Bush”, and “West-Running Brook”. Frost received 31 nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature.
