Harry Francis Cunningham (1888-1959) was born in Washington, D. C. on April 15, 1888, to Theodora and Joseph H. Cunningham. For many years Joseph was a cartoonist for the Washington Herald. After high school Harry studied design in Worcester (Massachusetts), New York City, Washington, D.C., and Paris, apparently without completing a degree. Harry was commissioned as a captain in the U.S. Army in 1917 and mobilized to France with a machine gun unit in 1918. He did not return permanently to the U.S. until 1922, having extended his stay in France volunteering in reconstructing devastated villages. In 1922, Cunningham established an architectural office in Washington and joined the American Institute of Architects (AIA). In 1924 he opened a second office in St. Petersburg, Florida and registered as a professional architect in that state as well, while remaining active in the D.C. AIA chapter. Cunningham's most prominent professional contribution was his involvement with the Bertram G. Goodhue-designed Nebraska State Capitol in Lincoln, Nebraska. Cunningham was hired as lead draftsman at the New York office around 1926 and separated from BGGA before he was chosen in 1930 by the University of Nebraska (NU) as the founding director and first professor of NU's new architecture department in the College of Engineering. He resumed active duty in the U.S. Army as an intelligence officer and strategic planner and saw service overseas in WWII. In 1949 he retired from the Army as a colonel and returned to Lincoln where he remained until his death on April 25, 1959. He was a member of American Legion Post 3, the Roundtable, and the AIA, which elected him a Fellow in 1955 Fourth Edition (Stated). SIGNED AND OWNED BY HENRY FRANCIS CUNNINGHAM!
