Although born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, his father was a colonel in the U.S. Army, and hence he grew up in California and Georgia. He attended Yale starting in 1915 and that same year published his first book of poems,  Five Men and Pompey'.  Young Adventure' (1918) is considered his first mature book of poetry, and he went on to win two Pulitzer Prizes, in 1929 for  John Brown's Body' and in 1944 for  Western Star'. It appears that the whole family had great talents, as his grandfather was a Brigadier General, his father a Colonel, and both Stephen and his brother William Rose Benet won Pulitzer Prizes for poetry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Vincent Benet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1785432303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781785432309\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Portable Poetry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.10d","brand":"Stephen Vincent Benet","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938054504703,"sku":"9781785432309","price":10.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_14871053-d136-478e-b7c6-3eb7aa642371.jpg?v=1681433459","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-poetry-of-stephen-vincent-stephen-vincent-benet-9781785432309","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
