Variant namesBiographical notes:
Frank Miles Day was born in Philadelphia and was educated primarily by his father. He studied architecture in Philadelphia at the University of Pennsylvania's Towne School and in London at the South Kensington School of Art and the Royal Academy. He began independent practice in Philadelphia in 1887, and in 1892 he established a partnership (Frank Miles Day and Brother) with his elder brother, H. Kent Day (1851-1925), an accountant. Charles Zeller Klauder became a chief draftsman for Frank Miles Day and Brother in 1900; by 1911 Klauder was made a named partner, forming Day Brothers and Klauder. H. Kent Day retired in 1912, and the firm became Day and Klauder in 1913. Frank Miles Day was an active partner until his death in 1918. His estate was jointly administered by his wife, Anna Blanchard Blakiston Day; his brother-in-law, Kenneth M. Blakiston; and his brother, H. Kent Day. Klauder continued the firm after Day's death, using the name Day and Klauder until 1927.
