A rugged man boldly
shaped from steel reinforcing
rods kneels in the center of the
Arts Festival in Atlanta’s
Piedmont Park.
A carefree carousel with
prancing iron horses spins
around at the touch of young
hands.
Both the young and not so
young visitor to the arts festi

Jerold Frankel a young At
lanta Sculptor. His parents
ore Norman and Harriet
Frankel. His mother is a well-
known artist herself.
Jerold. who only recently
began formal training in metal
sculpturing, has been far too
