Carl Sandburg

Posted by Tel on April 5, 2009

Carl Sandburg (1878-1967)
American Poet and Biographer of Lincoln, Pulitzer Prize Winner

American writer Carl Sandburg is best known for his poetry. He is often regarded as Walt Whitman’s successor in celebrating the American spirit. He won two Pulitzer Prizes, one for his poetry (Corn Huskers, 1919) and another for a biography of Abraham Lincoln.

Sandburg, the son of a Swedish immigrant, was born on January 6, 1878, in Galesburg, Illinois. At the age of 13, he left school and traveled around Kansas as a hobo.
