Frank Lloyd Wright's innovative designs grew out of his belief that a building should harmonize naturally with its setting and enhance the landscape. In an astoundingly prolific career that spanned three-fourths of a century, Wright designed more than a thousand buildings, about half of which were built. As an author, educator, and a philosopher, he has twenty published books. Wright also founded a school of architecture to train others in the field. He has influenced and inspired architects around the world with buildings as diverse as his revolutionary prairie houses and spiraling Guggenheim Museum in New York City. Author David Wright chronicles Wright's triumphant career as well as his personal story of ambition and adversity.
