Frank Easton Hopkins (March 30, 1863 – February 26, 1933) was an American church music composer, book printer, and politician from New York.

Life[edit]

Hopkins was born on March 30, 1863, in New York City. He graduated from Boston University in 1887.[1]

For many years, Hopkins worked as a book designer for De Vinne Press.[2] In 1896, he established his own printing company, the Marion Press, in Jamaica, Queens. He named it after his daughter, Marion Day.[3] He also was an organist and choirmaster of the Grace Episcopal Church, and wrote choir music. He was an active freemason, and served as master and organist of the Jamaica Lodge.[4]

Hopkins was the unsuccessful Republican candidate for the New York's 2nd congressional district in the 1912,[5] 1914,[6] 1922,[7] and 1924 United States House of Representatives elections.[8] In 1916, he was elected to the New York State Assembly as a Republican, representing the Queens County 4th District. He served in the Assembly in 1917[1] and 1919.[9]

Hopkins died in Topeka, Kansas, on February 26, 1933. He went to Topeka with his wife to visit their daughter and for health reasons.[4] He was buried in Grace Episcopal Churchyard in Jamaica, Queens.
