Honored
Anderson Kill shareholder Frank G. Murphy, an alumnus of Temple University College of Engineering and Temple University Beasley School of Law, was inducted into Temple University's Gallery of Success.
In its 22st year, the Gallery of Success celebrates professional achievement.
The Gallery's mission is twofold: to provide current Temple students an opportunity to recognize and be inspired by the success of Temple graduates who have gone before them and achieved success in their chosen fields and to honor Temple alumni who distinguish themselves in their careers.
One alumnus from each of Temple's 17 schools and colleges is honored each fall during homecoming weekend and highlighted for one year in the Gallery of Success showcase, located in Mitten Hall's lower level.
Additionally, the names of all former Gallery recipients are permanently displayed online.
Murphy received the Outstanding Engineering Graduate Award in 1985 and graduated from the Law School in 1992.
He served in multiple positions, including president of the alumni association and member of the College of Engineering board of visitors.
Murphy's practice concentrates on corporate and commercial litigation as well as real estate and construction matters.
He is chair of the board of supervisors for Chadds Ford Township in Delaware County.
