CareerGaylord was born in March 1925 to Richard and Thelma (Hamilton) Gaylord in Clarksburg, West Virginia.[1] He was named for his grandfather, Frank C. Gaylord. He graduated from Washington Irving High School in Clarksburg.[2] Gaylord was drafted at the age of 18 into the United States Army.[2] He served in the 17th Airborne Division during World War II. He saw action in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, and was awarded the Bronze Star Medal.[3] During this time, he sketched many of the men he served with in the military.[4] He was wounded, and spent several months in military hospitals convalescing.[2] After being discharged from the Army at the end of the war, Gaylord attended the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He transferred to the Tyler School of Art at Temple University, where he received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1950.[2][5] Gaylord and his wife moved to Barre, Vermont, in 1951.[6][7] Interested in a career in sculpting granite, Gaylord apprenticed under noted Vermont sculptor Bruno Sarzanini.[8] Early in his career, Gaylord carved tombstones.[6] Over time, he received numerous commissions for life-sized and larger-than-life representational figures and figure groups throughout the United States and Canada.[2] In 1989 Frank became partners with his son-in-law John Triano. John ran the business and Frank was able to focus on the art. In 1990, Gaylord was selected to sculpt a field of 38 soldiers (later reduced to 19) for the Korean War Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. Some of the faces of the sculptures he created for the work (known as "The Column") are drawn from men he served with during World War II, including William A. Callaway[4] and John Erdman.[9] In 2002, the United States Postal Service used a photograph of Gaylord's soldier sculptures for a stamp commemorating the Korean War. Gaylord sued for copyright infringement in 2006. The United States Court of Federal Claims denied his claim, but this was overturned by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Gaylord v. United States, 595 F.3d 1364 (Fed. Cir. 2010). On remand, the Court of Federal Claims awarded Gaylord $5,000 in compensation. But on appeal, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit again vacated the decision and remanded the case back to the Court of Federal Claims for a new determination of damages based on what Gaylord and the Postal Service might have negotiated.[10] On September 20, 2013, The United States Court of Federal Claims awarded Gaylord $684,844.94 in damages.[11] Personal life and honorsGaylord was married to Mary Cornwell. The couple had two children, Leanne Gaylord Triano and Victoria Gaylord. He also had a son, John Richard Gaylord, who died in 1962. He has two grandchildren, Amy Triano Tefft M.D., her husband Cory, his great granddaughter Quinn Nicole Tefft, great grandson Theodore John Tefft, grandson John Triano and his wife Natalya . Gaylord worked in a {{convert|7000|sqft|m2}} studio in Barre, Vermont.[2] Gaylord was honored for his work several times. These recognitions include an honorary doctorate from Norwich University in Northfield, Vermont, in 1998 and the Governor's Award from the Vermont Council on the Arts in 2003.[3] Gaylord died at the Northfield, Vermont home of his daughter and son in law on March 21, 2018.[12] He was 93.
