Which founder was known for contributions as an architect?

• A. George Washington Carver
• B. Louis Kahn
• C. Frank Lloyd Wright
• D. Vertner Woodson Tandy

Answer: (D)

Vertner Woodson Tandy is the founder known for contributions as an architect because he balanced his role as a founding member of Alpha Phi Alpha with a professional architecture career, becoming the first African American registered architect in New York State. His work in design and building projects shows the architectural contributions that set him apart among the founders. The other names are associated with different fields: one with science and education, and the others with architecture but not as founders of the fraternity.
