Book Description
We who studied with Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin always called him
"Mr. Wright." When he spoke to us, his apprentices, he addressed us by
our first names, reflecting respect on the one hand and affection on the
other. Because I knew him during the last ten years of his lifetime as Mr.
Wright, it would now, some twenty-five years later, be impossible for me
to refer to him, write about him, or speak of him, with any other name
than that which I employed during my first decade at Taliesin.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Born in 1869 in Richland Center, Frank Lloyd Wright was one of the leading and early architects of the first half of the twentieth century. So far, it is the most famous in American history and is still known to both the public and the specialists.
He spent most of his childhood on the farm of his mother, the chief instigator, in addition to his creative talent in his architectural formation. In 1884, he joined the University of Wisconsin, where he wanted to specialize in architecture, but this major was not present at the University of Wisconsin and his financial conditions did not enable him to join another university, so he spent years From his life studying technical engineering, then he got tired of that and left it, so he headed to Chicago to look for work, and there he was fortunate to find a job with one of the largest construction companies for a salary of no more than eight dollars per week.
