Frank Kimball Root was a music publisher in Chicago[1] and the proprietor of Frank K. Root & Co. He was a Republican.[1] His father, Ebenezer Towner Root,[1] co-founded Root & Cady. Among the many notable songs published by the firm is I Ain't Got Nobody. Frank K. Root's firm had close ties to the McKinley Music Company.[2] His home, the Root-Badger House at 326 Essex Rd. in Kenilworth, Illinois outside Chicago (also known as the Centennial House), was designed by Daniel Burnham and built by Paul Starrett.[3] It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (National Register of Historic Places listings in Cook County, Illinois). [4][5]BackgroundHis father cofounded Root & Cady. It was hit by the Great Chicago fire of 1871 and bankrupted. It was reorganized several years later as The Root & Sons Music Company. Songwriter George F. Root was his uncle.[1] See also
