Frank Lloyd Wright
Frank Lloyd Wright was a courageos man in the sense that he was not afraid to accept
critisism from people and fellow architects. Throught his careerhe has faced many types
of disagreements. People did not believe that he was sane or normal because his
buildings were so radical back then. People started to look and beleive in his work
after they saw his first commision, which was Moore-Dugal house.
Wright was born in the year 1867 on the date June 8th, in Richland Center, Wisconsin.
His name was to be Frank Lincoln Wright, the name was Franks great grandfathers name.
His mother thought it would be a tradition if the name stayed in the family, and that it
did.
Wright studied architecture at the University of Wisconsin. He thought that the school
was the pits in architecture from 1885-1886. He did not lead the coolest life there but
infact that of a nerd. After school he moved to Chiago in 1887. Worked and studied with
Joesph Lyman Silsbee as an architectural detailer.
