Phebe Hemphill (born April 25, 1960) is an American sculptor who works for the United States Mint . She has been called "one of the preeminent coin artists, sculptors, and engravers of our time."[1]
Early life and education [ edit ]
Hemphill was born April 25, 1960, in West Chester, Pennsylvania [2] to Dallett Hemphill and Ann Cornwell Hemphill.[3] A number of Phebe Hemphill's family members, including her father and grandfather, were interested in coin and medal collecting.[1] She was directly inspired by her grandfather, Gibbons Gray Cornwell Jr., who did bas-relief sculpture , who in turn was influenced by her great-great aunt, Martha Jackson Cornwell , who worked with Augustus Saint-Gaudens .[4] [2]
Hemphill attended Agnes Irwin School for girls in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania , graduating in 1978.[5] Hemphill trained at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts , graduating in 1987. She also studied with Evangelos Frudakis .[6] Hemphill includes Jules-Clément Chaplain , Jean-Baptiste Daniel-Dupuis , Oscar Roty , Augustus Saint-Gaudens , and Adolph A. Weinman among her artistic influences.[1]
Sculpture [ edit ]
In 1987, Hemphill joined the Franklin Mint in the sculpture department. She remained there until 2002, working on porcelain and medallic art. From 2002 until 2005 she worked as a staff sculptor at McFarlane Toys , in Bloomingdale, New Jersey .[2]
In 2006, she joined the United States Mint in Philadelphia.[7] [2] She has sculpted many coins and medals for the U.S. Mint, including the 2013 Presidential $1 Coin obverse for William McKinley ;[8] the 2011 September 11 National Medal World Trade center obverse;[9] [10] [11] the Monuments men bronze medal;[12] and coin series of Five-Star Generals,[13] First Spouses[14] and Code talkers .[15] [2] United States Mint state quarters including Gettysburg , the Grand Canyon , Mount Hood , and Yosemite are also Hemphill's work.[6]
Hemphill lives in Philadelphia. She frequently visits sites which will be featured in her work, including Shenandoah National Park and the September 11 attack locations.[16] [5] She uses both digital and traditional methods in her work, working with 3-D imaging software as well as creating coin designs on clay blanks the size of dinner plates.[17] [6]
"The best reason to do traditional work now is the ability to see depth perception ... Since we're working in such shallow relief, it's a very important and viable way to do it."[6]
Exhibitions [ edit ]
Hemphill's work has been shown by the National Sculpture Society , the American Medallic Sculpture Association , the F.A.N. Gallery in Philadelphia,[15] [6] and West Chester University .[18]
2014, Winner of Congressional Medal Design Contest for the September 11 attacks[5]
2000, Alex J. Ettel Grant, National Sculpture Society[6]
2001, Renaissance Sculpture Award, the Franklin Mint[6]
