In the Valley (1890), The Damnation of Theron Ware (1896), and The Market Place (1899) are some of his works. Frederick Harold was born on August 19, 1856, in Utica, New York. His parents were Presbyterian. He went to the Methodist church, but he wasn't sure about faith in general. Frederic became interested in photography and writing early on. When Frederic was 18 months old, his father died in a train accident. His mother raised him most of the time after that. He finished school when he was fifteen years old and started working as a photographer right away. At home and in Boston, he worked as a picture touch-up artist for four years. He started working as a checker for The Utica Herald and then The Utica Daily Observer in 1875. Frederic went on to work as a writer. He got married to Grace Green Williams in 1877 and had five kids with her. In 1882, he was in charge of The Albany Evening Journal, a newspaper in the state capital of New York.
