Frank Lebby Stanton (February 22, 1857 – January 7, 1927) was an American lyricist and newspaper columnist, recognized primarily for his dialect works and warm, homespun poetry. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Stanton's literary contributions significantly reflect the regional vernacular and sentiments of the South during his era. Often referred to as 'Frank L. Stanton,' he became the first poet laureate of Georgia, a testament to his impact on Southern literature. His book 'You'll git dar in de mornin'' exemplifies his use of African American Vernacular English (AAVE), a style he was known to employ to give his writings a touch of authenticity and emotional resonance. His verses were not only published in books but also frequently appeared in The Atlanta Constitution, where Stanton worked for over 50 years, gaining widespread acclaim. His literary style embodies simplicity and rhythm, and his works reflect a strong connection with everyday life and a deep appreciation for nature. Stanton's writings have been admired for their sympathetic humor and universal appeal, which bridged the social and cultural divides of his time. His legacy as a poet and his contribution to the American literary landscape endures through his verse, which continues to be celebrated for its evocative portrayal of Southern life and its enduring humanism.
