Frank Lloyd Wright Remembered Patrick J. Meehan, AIA A sentimental and intriguing look at America's most famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright Remembered explores the wide range of relationships maintained by Frank Lloyd Wright-from architect to friend, from husband to father. The voices of many of those who knew Wright reveal here a multifaceted portrait. Organized around the recollections of those who knew the architect, worked with him, or had met or been inspired by his work, Frank Lloyd Wright Remembered offers a fascinating look at how Wright was perceived by those around him. Featured are reminiscences of architects such as Walter Gropius and Philip Johnson; of clients such as Loren B. Pope and Sarah Smith; of apprentices such as William Wesley Peters and Fay Jones; of friends such as sculptor Egon Weiner and publisher Ben Raeburn; of family members such as Olgivanna Lloyd Wright, Anne Baxter, and Catherine Dorothy Wright Baxter. These personal recollections-some discussing a relationship in depth, others punctuated by comic incidents that quickly capsulize a particular aspect of Wright's personality-provide a better understanding of this great American architect.Meehan, Patrick J. is the author of 'Frank Lloyd Wright Remembered' with ISBN 9780471143833 and ISBN 0471143839.
