Life
Robert Francis was born in Upland, Pennsylvania, on August 12, 1901. In 1923, he graduated from Harvard University. He'd later attend Harvard's Graduate School of Education, where he once said he'd returned home. He lived in a tiny house he had built for himself in 1940, near Cushman Village in Amherst, Massachusetts. Since the juniper is almost indestructible, Francis decided on "Fort Juniper." Robert Frost, his primary poetic mentor, and indeed Francis' first collection of poems, Stand Here With Me (1936), features a poetic voice reminiscent of Frost's in delicately crafted nature poems. Valhalla and Other Poems was also named with the 1939 Shelley Memorial Award, despite his second book of poetry. "Poetry is the only appropriate way to say one thing and mean another," Frost said.
