William Franklin "Frank" Birnbaum (1922–2005) was a well-known 20th century chazzan within Conservative Judaism in the United States. Serving congregations and performing concerts across America, his music was well known for its eclectic and melodious nature. As a tenor, his voice was widely acclaimed as one of the finest cantorial tenor voices in the latter-half of the 20th century. ==Life==
Birnbaum was born in Charleston, South Carolina in 1922. The oldest of three children, Birnbaum began studying chazzanut under his father, Samuel Birnbaum, who was then chazzan of Brith Sholom Beth Israel Synagogue, the oldest Ashkenazic synagogue in continuous usage in the United States. After serving in World War II, Birnbaum completed his collegiate studies at Columbia University in New York City. Graduating from Columbia University in 1951, Birnbaum assumed a temporary position as Assistant to the Cantor at Central Synagogue in New York City. It soon became apparent that his vocal ability warranted a more permanent position, and he was subsequently made "Associate Cantor" of the synagogue. After serving Central Synagogue from 1951–1953, he assumed the position of chazzan at Congregation Shaare Zedek (New York City) from 1953–1957 and later Chevra Thilim in New Orleans, Louisiana from 1957-1964. In 1959, he was inducted as a member of the Cantors Assembly of America. Birnbaum would go on to serve congregations in Dallas and Atlanta until he retired in 1990 from Temple Israel (Charlotte, North Carolina).
