| Furniture designer, born in Rochester, New York, USA. Originally an architect, he worked with Henry H Richardson on the design of the New York State capitol in Albany. In the 1880s he worked in the Midwest, then returned to Rochester. He designed furniture for Gustav Stickley's United Crafts shop in Syracuse, NY (1902) and began to publish brilliant designs for textiles and interiors as well as furniture in The Craftsman (1903). He seems to have been solely responsible for the Stickley workshop's production of ornamental inlaid furniture. |
