Synopsis
In this personal recollection by one of Frank Lloyd Wright's former apprentices, Curtis Besinger provides a lively account of daily life at Taliesin, the community of architects Wright established in Wisconsin and Arizona. An apprenticeship with the Fellowship entailed architectural tasks, such as drafting, designing, and overseeing projects, including the actual building of Taliesin West, as well as humbler assignments--from milking the cows to harvesting wheat. He also describes the social life of the place, filled with music and film, and planned in detail by Wright himself. Through these engaging recollections, illustrated with photographs, plans and drawings, Wright's eccentric personality, his working practices, and his unique creative vision emerge, along with a host of personalities who contributed to the unique Taliesin experience.
