The Lieber family made a considerable impact on business and cultural life in the Hoosier capital.  \nBorn in Dusseldorf on 23 August 1832, Lieber came to Indianapolis in 1854, where he opened a small bindery near Washington and Meridian streets. He married Mary Metzger in 1857, thus making an alliance with another prominent German family. Their six children (Otto R., Carl H., Robert, Herman P., Ida, and Anna) married members of the Pfaff, Pantzer, Kothe, and Stempfel families.  \nHerman Lieber, along with members of the Fletcher banking family, was one of the patrons who made it possible for T. C. Steele, William Forsyth, and other artists to study painting in Munich in the early 1880s. Herman established the H. Lieber Company (a firm specializing in picture frames and framing) in 1884, a business which the family kept going for several generations.  \nHerman influenced the establishment and operation of German institutions in Indianapolis, including the Athenaeum, the German-English School, and the Normal School of the North American Gymnastic Union. A prohibitionist, Lieber served as president of the Anti-Prohibition League of Indiana in 1882. Herman Lieber, Sr. died on 22 March 1908 on a train near Flagstaff, Arizona.  \nCarl H. Lieber, the second son of Herman and Marianne (Metzger) Lieber, was born on 16 March 1866 in Indianapolis. He joined the H. Lieber Company as a teenager after receiving his education at the German English School and Shortridge High School. He married Meta Pantzer of Sheboygan, Wisconsin, in 1894. The union bore four children:  \nLili (Hofmann), Carl T., and twins Hilda (Turner) and Meta (Hatcher) .  \nDevoted to civic causes, Lieber was a founding member ofthe Art Association of Indianapolis and the Portfolio Club. He served on the Board of Directors ofthe John Herron Art Institute from 1898, and was chairman of the Fine Arts Committee at the time of his death. Other memberships included Portfolio Club, the Athenaeum, the University Club, and the Little Theater Society. Lieber was also president of the Normal School of the North American Gymnasium Union. He died on 6 April 1929 while golfing in Hot Springs, Arkansas.  \nSources:  \nCollection guide for Carl H.
