Frank Caldwell was born in San Francisco, California in 1912. His family was made up of artists and writers, who inspired him early on to pursue art himself. He studied at the San Francisco School of Design, got his Bachelors from the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles, and obtained his Masters at Warren Rollins in Santa Fe, New Mexico. During World War II he served as a combat artist for the United States Marines, and when he returned from the Pacific he accepted a position teaching art at Los Angeles City College that he held off-and-on for nearly fifty years. In the late 1940s he designed murals for the Maritime Commission, and in the 1950s he became involved with the entertainment industry, painting sets for films and the Pasadena Playhouse. His art appeared on NCB’s opera series, the Band of America, and the Perry Como Show. He served as art director for New World Productions, sometimes under different pseudonyms. Two films he worked on won awards at the Cannes Film Festival: In the Beginning, and Frenzy: The New Orleans Story. From 1970 onward he left entertainment and devoted himself solely to painting, drawing, and graphic design. His oils, watercolors, pastels, and tempera works have appeared in museums and galleries throughout the West Coast. He had solo exhibitions in Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, San Diego, New York, Washington D.C., Baltimore, and Miami. He passed away in Los Angeles in 2002.
