Frank Lloyd Wright Biography

About Frank Lloyd Wright

About Frank Lloyd Wright
Courtesy of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation

Experimenting with forms and materials, Frank Lloyd Wright developed a distinctly American form of architecture. The forward-thinking Wright began his career in Oak Park, Illinois, and came to be recognized as one of the greatest architects of the twentieth century. Every structure he created was informed by his belief that beautifully designed buildings make a difference in our lives.
