Series 5: Other Groups

Documentation exists for two other groups focused on the life and work of Frank Lloyd Wright. The Frank Lloyd Wright Association of Oak Park, Illinois, published an important newsletter to which John Geiger subscribed for four years (1978-1981). Each issue of this quarterly report (usually 12 or 20 pages in length) of Wright-related information featured work, writings, illustrations, and reminiscences by members of the Taliesin Fellowship and Taliesin Fellows, who also designed the graphic layouts. Geiger also retained program information from a Wright conference he atttended in 1990 that was sponsored by the San Diego Architectural Foundation.

Subseries 1: Frank Lloyd Wright Association (1978-1981, 2004) consists 17 issues of the Frank Lloyd Wright Newsletter, whose significant original graphic enrichments were designed by a succession of Taliesin Fellows.; some correspondence; and the premiere issue of Wright Angles (2004) a publication concerning the Frank Lloyd Wright Preservation Trust.

Subseries 2: san diego architecturaL foundation (1990) consists of a small amount of material related a conference on the work of Frank Lloyd Wright held in San Diego, California.
