Robert Frost '96, who returned for the dedication of the Robert Frost Room in Baker Library on April 19, tells Librarian Richard W. Morin '24 how a Richard Hovey poem in The Independent, seen in the old Dartmouth library, encouraged him to send in his first poem for publication - "and that's how I got started in the poetry business."
