Harold Kalmus received his BFA from the Philadelphia College of Art, concentrating on the study of sculpture, art theory and anatomy, studying under the mentorship of the noted sculptor Walter Erlebacher. He has kept an active studio practice, producing sculpture which incorporates a modernist sensibility with an adherence to the figurative traditions of the past. His work has been shown in numerous galleries and museum exhibits and is included in many private collections.

Currently, in addition to his studio work he is engaged in the completion and preparation for publication of the manuscript “On the Figure”, a comprehensive method of the study of the figure for artists by Professor Erlebacher, left incomplete at the time of his death. In addition to his work as a sculptor, he is an accomplished digital illustrator and animator. He lives and maintains his studio in the historic community of Arden DE.
