Equally interesting, I would think, would be the stories of the people that commissioned these homes. Think 1939 and this home goes up in town. Who blazes that trail? Rosenbaum was Jewish and the son of the local movie theatre magnate. He met his wife, a fasion model, while at school in New York. He got his PhD at University of Denver, but couldn't get a job at the local university in Florence, so he helped his father run the business until things changed and he finally became a professor.

I heard that FLW was an absolute POS when it came to his personal life. True?

I have no idea, but isn't that the case with most artists?

If your ever out my way, the Wescott House is a nice place to visit. They've invested millions in its renovation and it has a nice FLW museum inside.

There's a Wright house in Bountiful. Didn't know that.

Florence, Alabama did the same, dumping millions into the renovation of what the town surveyor recommended be condemned and torn down. Thank goodness the mayor prevailed. The Rosenbaum House was one of many "Usonian" designs by Wright (Usonian = U.S. + onian). His vision was to provide affordable yet artful housing to middle class America. Rosenbaum started out as a three-bedroom, becoming a four bedroom after a Wright-designed addition.
