Buehler Alumni Center Frank Van Sloun was an American Realist painter associated with the Ash Can School of New York in the early years of the last century. He was born in 1879 in St. Paul, MN and died in San Francisco in 1938. He briefly dropped out of art school to be a professional baseball player in St. Paul, but moved to NY to be an artist in 1900. He achieved his greatest renown during the 30s; he was on the faculty of UC Berkeley starting in 1926, after moving to the Bay Area in 1911.
