Frank G. Queen graduated from the law school of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1976. After a brief stint as the Washington Counsel for Hooper Holmes, Inc., he returned home to Waynesville where he has practiced since.
In addition to his legal work, he serves on a number of local non-profit boards, including Voices in the Laurel (a children’s choir) and KARE (an advocacy group for children who have suffered abuse). He sings in his church choir at Maple Grove United Methodist Church and rides his Honda VFR sport-touring motorcycle throughout the US. He enjoys photography as a hobby – the photographs on these pages were made by him.
