Born- 1934, Rochester, New York, after high school enlisted into the Army, 1953. He served during the "Korean Conflict" and was stationed in Fulda, Germany. These, of course, were the years of the "Cold War." After being honorably discharged, Fritz enrolled in college, "San Francisco College of Fine Arts", San Francisco, California. In his senior year, he transferred, with a full scholarship, to the "College of Arts & Crafts" in Oakland, California, earning both a BFA and a Teaching Degree. Fritz taught in Oakland, California for four years before returning to New York State to further his graduate education, at "R.I.T.", in Rochester, New York. He stayed with his family in Naples, New York, while pursuing his work at "R.I.T". Fritz taught for one year in the Canandaigua, New York School System. In 1967, he signed a teaching contract with the Corning -Painted Post School District, Corning, New York. This was the beginning of a 35 1/2 year career at C.F.A. "Corning Free Academy" Junior High/later Middle School. To satisfy N.Y. State's Requirements for certification, Fritz took classes at Elmira College and later, more graduate courses at Mansfield University, Mansfield, Pennsylvania. He retired from the Corning Painted-Post School District in 2001. Fritz met Linda, his wife of 40 years, while enrolled in a graduate graphics class at Mansfield University in 1971! In 1975 they were married and have shared their art-filled life together ever since. Fritz has always been a prolific and professional draftsman, printmaker, sculptor, illustrator and teacher. Having won many awards, commissions, his work is in both public and private collections throughout the United States.
