William Franklin Draper, born in Hopedale, Massachusetts, became one of America's more noted combat and portraits artists, who depicted many of the country's wealthiest and most prominent individuals. His portrait of John F. Kennedy hangs in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington DC., and in 1999, he received the Gold Medal from the National Portrait Society, its highest honor. -
