Wright Chat

HI,

I'm interested in doing a project on FLW, concentrating with him from 1900-1920 as social reformer? Anyone got a good idea where to start to collect primary sources, documents pertaining to that area of study? I am in Connecticut. I was hoping for archives at Guggenheim, but it seems most of his archives are elsewhere.

Any info would be great.

I would suggest the Avery Architectural Library at Columbia University. I recommend these books given your topic:



Frank Lloyd Wright Collected Writings: Volume 1 1894-1930



Frank Lloyd Wright: The Lost Years 1910-1922



Frank Lloyd Wright Autobiography



Frank Lloyd Wright by Meryl Secrist



Frank Lloyd Wright To 1910: The First Golden Age



Books on the California Work, especially Aline Barnesdall and her projects

HI Paul,



Thanks for the info. I will give them a call tomorrow.

Thanks too, for the start with books. I have started with a couple of books he wrote in the late 40's.



I am so impressed with his work, I am even thinking of buying that house for sale in Michigan... But it is out in the sticks!!



Regards,



Robert
