Being an intensely private man, very little is known about the personal life of Francis Wolff. He was born Jacob Franz Wolff in Berlin on April 5, 1907. His father had earned a substantial amount of money on investments and provided a comfortable childhood for Francis to enjoy. His home life was filled with cultural diversity. His father, a university mathematics professor, imbued him with a great love and appreciation of academia and the arts and sciences. His mother was reputed to be something of a Bohemian and instilled Frank with a taste for the contemporary and iconoclastic. Interested in photography early on, he received formal training at a school in Berlin, and subsequently became a professional photographer.
