| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
My major achievements in research since 2019 (i.e., over the last five years) are represented by two books. The most recent is The Letters of Robert Frost, Volume 3: 1929-1936 (Harvard University Press, 2021), of which I am co-editor; this is the third of a five-volume edition. The other is publication of The Wings of Atalanta: Essays Written Along the Color Line (Rochester, New York: Camden House, 2019), of which I am the sole author.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
The most significant research I’ve conducted over the last five years concerns the letters of the American poet Robert Frost (1874-1963). I am co-editor of The Letters of Robert Frost (Harvard UP). This is an unprecedented edition. Our edition will become the standard edition used by Frost scholars.
