Born in Wisconsin in 1867, Frank Lloyd Wright became obsessed with a set
of building blocks his mother had given to him on his ninth birthday. He
grew up to become the father of organic architecture and the greatest
American architect of all time, having designed more than 1,100
buildings during his lifetime. These included private homes - such as
the stunning Fallingwater, churches, temples, a hotel, and the
world-famous Guggenheim Museum in New York City. When asked how he could
create so many designs, he answered, "I can't get them out fast enough."
Frank Lloyd Wright was a man ahead of his time who could barely keep up
with his own ideas!
