Frank T. Bow

Frank Townsend Bow was a noted Ohio jurist and politician who served as as a Republican Congressman in the United States House of Representatives from January 3, 1951 until his death on November 13, 1972.

Bow was born in Canton, Ohio on February 20, 1901. He attended college at Ohio Northern University where he was a member of the Sigma Pi Fraternity and law school at Columbia University. He was admitted to the Ohio bar in 1923 when he returned to Canton to practice law. The Frank T. Bow Federal Building in Canton, Ohio is named in his honor.

In 1929, Bow was appointed as assistant attorney general of the state. In 1932, he was hired by WHBC, a Canton area radio station. During World War II, he worked as the station's overseas correspondent, traveling to cover the war in the Philippines. During the Eightieth United States Congress, Bow was hired as part of the general counsel to the Expenditures Committee. Senator Andrew F. Schoeppel hired him as a legislative aide during the next Congress.

In 1950, Bow was elected to the House of Representatives. He was a close ally of Dwight D. Eisenhower and a staunch supporter of tax reform. Bow died during his thirteenth term in Congress.
