Biografía del autor:

The Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that operates two Wright-designed landmarks as museums: the architect's own residence and studio in Oak Park, Illinois, and his renowned Prairie Style design, the Frederick C. Robie House on the campus of the University of Chicago. The Foundation also manages collections of Wright furnishings, objects, and artifacts, offers educational programs, and operates a research center on Wright and the Prairie School of architecture. Its mission is to educate a worldwide audience in the architectural and artistic principles of Frank Lloyd Wright, to restore and preserve the Wright-designed structures entrusted to its care, and to present those structures and their collections to the public. The Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio and the Robie House are sites of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

Melanie Birk is the publications director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio Foundation. She has written professionally on the subject of Wright's work for eight years and served as editor of a number of publications, including the book, Frank Lloyd Wright's Fifty Views of Japan. A specialist in writing about the field of historic preservation, she holds a master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University.
