罗伯特·李·弗罗斯特（Robert Lee Frost，年3月26日－年1月29日），20世纪最受欢迎的美国诗人之一，他的诗歌从农村生活中汲取题材，他本人也因为以美国口语进行演说的能力而得到高度评价。弗罗斯特获得过四次普利策诗歌奖，甚至在年受约翰·肯尼迪总统的邀请在其就职典礼上朗读诗歌。代表作有《未选择的路》（The Road Not Taken）、《雪夜林边小驻》（Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening）等等。

In this documentary, American poet Robert Frost discusses his life and poetry as he is followed from his lectures at Sarah Lawrence College and Amherst College to his farm in Ripton, Vermont. Highlights of the discussion include: his early years in San Francisco; his thoughts on poetry and the "momentary stay" it provides against the confusion of the world; his first meeting with poet Ezra Pound; his spiritual beliefs; his reflections on the courage it takes to be 88 years old; his admiration for his country; and his thoughts on being thrust into the public eye. Frost also recites his poems "Reluctance," "Dust of Snow," "Away," "The Objection to Being Stepped On," and "Provide, Provide." He also reads "In Winter in the Woods," a poem he had just written and which, at the time of broadcast, was as yet untitled. Interwoven throughout the interview are old photos and excerpts from previous interviews with Frost. Also included is film footage of Frost accepting an award in March, from President John F. Kennedy, and visiting the crew of the ship carrier Essex with his great-grandchildren; as well as footage of citizens of Ripton responding to questions concerning Frost. (This program
