Career

Albert Hamilton Kipp was born in New York City on November 14, 1850, but grew up at Mount Pleasant, New York where his step-father, Elijah Bird, worked as a carpenter.

Kipp worked for a few years in New York for James Renwick, before moving to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania in June 1886. He joined forces with Thomas Podmore in December 1886 to form the architecture firm Kipp & Podmore, but the firm dissolved by mutual consent at the end of 1891.
