Frank Phillips

My book report is on Frank Phillips. He died on August 23, 1950. He is famous for the oil company. He does not have Indian in him. He was born in 1873.  Frank Phillips, an ambitious barber-turned-bond salesman from Iowa, visited Bartlesville in 1903 to assess business possibilities in the surrounding oil fields. DID YOU KNOW that despite his wealth, Frank Phillips never outgrew his log-cabins roots? While he and Jane had a lavish mansion in Bartlesville, they spent every evening they could at the ranch. And DID YOU KNOW that Woolaroc even produced its own brands of bottle water which was shipped by the case to Frank’s office in New York City, as well as to his friends and associates? Woolaroc has something for everyone .Will
Rogers once said, “When you are visiting the beauty spots of this country, don’t overlook Frank Phillips ranch and game preserve in
Bartlesville, Oklahoma. It’s the most unique place in this country. “If there is one last under-discovered treasure left in the
United States, it surely must be a place called Woolaroc. The home was the setting from which his family, friends, and community that grew up around them played a key role in the development of the oil industry in
America. I chose to report on Frank Phillips because he’s interesting and we’re going to Woolaroc and I’ll see his house.. He is famous for the oil company. He does not have Indian in him. He was born in 1873.
