Robert Lowell was an American poet, best known for winning the ‘National Book Award’ for his book of poetry titled ‘Life Studies.’ Born to a military commander father in Massachusetts, he was a violent kid who bullied other children. He became interested in poetry in high school, apparently, after meeting his teacher Richard Eberhart, who was also a poet. Inspired by him, Robert later decided to become a poet. He joined ‘Harvard College,’ where he met Robert Frost, another popular poet. Later, Robert took a leave of absence from the college and began living with poet Allen Tate, learning the art of poetry from him. In 1944, Robert published his first book of poems, ‘Land of Unlikeness.’ He then released ‘Lord Weary’s Castle.’ Robert’s poems received widespread critical acclaim. His fame soared with the publication of many more poetry collections, such as ‘Life Studies,’ ‘Imitations,’ and ‘For the Union Dead.’ Over the years, he also taught writing at many universities such as ‘Harvard University,’ ‘Yale University,’ and the ‘University of Cincinnati.’ Some of his students, such as Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton, went on to become renowned poets.
