Frank Eugene Smith (1865-1936) was born in New York to German immigrant parents
who Anglicized their name from Schmidt to Smith. Smith was successful as both a painter and a photographer, but he is best known for his photos, which he artfully manipulated to produce interesting effects. Although he had several successful exhibitions of his work
in New York,he spent most of his working career in Germany and became
both a professor and a German citizen early in World War I.
