True Crime: Savage Murder At Taliesin
Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the most famous architects in the world. He lived and worked between 1867 and 1959. His works have inspired millions, but at the same time, his life had dark tragedies.
I have been a fan of Frank Lloyd Wright for quite some time, and try to visit his structures everywhere I travel. This time I got to visit his home in Spring Green, Wisconsin. The beauty of the site and the savagery of this tale contrast with each other.
But, let’s go back to where this thread of Frank’s life started.
He was young and working out of his studio in Oak Park, Illinois.
At this time he was taking on commissions from friends, neighbors, and word of mouth assignments. There are huge parts of Oak Park that were designed and built by him.
