I found this documentary quite interesting. It focuses on FLW’s time/creations in Los Angeles after the violent deaths of his companion, her children, and their staff.

Thanks for posting that! I live about 30 minutes from Taliesin in SE Wisconsin. He was a fascinating man. One of my Art Teachers in HS knew him well; she worked as an apprentice (or something) at one point.

The things you learn on FR. Surprised there wasn’t an outcry to ban hatchet. It’s probably a good thing the townsfolk didn’t hang Carlton and he suffered from that acid.

Wow, Wright was certainly the philanderer.

My wife and I have visited many Wright sites including Falling Water and Taliesen. However this past summer we visited the Dana-Thomas House in Springfield, IL. This early 20th century Wright design was amazing and very different than his Prairie Style designs. We also stayed at the only surviving Wright designed hotel in Mason City, IA. Mason City has a great collection of Prairie Style homes including a restored 1903 Wright designed home.
