Abstract:

Postcards, photographs, drawings, ephemera, manuscript items, publications, posters, and blueprints collected and created by architect Lynn Anderson documenting the work of architect Frank Lloyd Wright. After graduating from engineering and architecture school, Anderson went to work for Wright as a family server and, after Wright's death, stayed on as a architect with Taliesin Associated Architects. Of particular note are the images of the aftermath of the fire and murders at Wright's home in 1914 including the hatchet used in the murders, and images of the destruction in Tokyo after the 1921 earthquake.
