Best Answer

The Edgar Allan Poe Society acknowledges that Poe called Virginia his home and thought of himself as a Virginian; but it believes that Baltimore is where Edgar Allan Poe became the Edgar Allan Poe that he is today. It is the place that truly defines Edgar Allan Poe both from the perspective of his life and his work.
