Biography: Sculptor Hans Schuler, Jr. was a graduate of The Johns Hopkins University and the Maryland Institute's Rinehart School of Sculpture, both located in Baltimore, Md., but viewed his most important training as an understudy to his father, working on many of Hans Hans Schuler, Sr.'s large monuments. Hans Schuler, Jr.'s own works consist of large memorials, architectural pieces, portrait busts and reliefs, and medals and trophies in bronze, stone, and ceramic, which can be found throughout the United States. Hans Schuler, Jr. also learned teaching methods from his father and Hans Jr. became director of the Maryland Institute's Evening School and an instructor of sculpture. These experiences and the influence of his father led to the founding of the Schuler School of Fine Arts in Baltimore. He married Ann Didusch, also an artist, instructor and co-founder of the Schuler School.
