Philip H. Frohman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Philip H. Frohman (November 16, 1887 – 1972) was an architect who is most widely known for his work on the National Cathedral, named, the "Cathedral Church of St. Peter and St. Paul" in Washington, D.C. He worked on the English Gothic style cathedral from 1921 until his death in 1972.

Frohman is also known for his collaborated design of the Trinity College Chapel, at Trinity College (Connecticut) in Hartford, Connecticut. The chapel at Trinity College, completed in 1932, bears a great resemblance to the National Cathedral and is also known to be one of the last cathedrals to be built in the traditional style.
