Note: Interesting to note the chair Wright brought to the interview. It appears to be a side chair designed in 1939 for the Lloyd Lewis Residence (S.265).

Title: Frank Lloyd Wright photographed during the filming of the program, "Conversations with Elder Wise Men -- A Visit with Frank Lloyd Wright"
Description: Episode 105, which aired on Sunday, May 17, 1953. The host for the program was Hugh Downs. Wright is seated in a chair, facing to the left. His legs are folded, he is holding a book on his lap. Clipping pasted to verso: "The Home should reflect the home owner’s tastes." Hand written on clipping: "Frank Lloyd Wright." Stamped on clipping: "Herald American Nov 23 1952." Stamped on verso: "Eng Dept. 1952 Oct 20." Note: The episode with Wright and Downs aired on May 17, 1953. Hession and Pickrel, in their book "Frank Lloyd Wright in New York" indicate that: "Wright’s segment, produced by NBC’s Ben Park, was nearly nine months in the making..." p.85, which would indicate they began corresponding with Wright in September 1952. We have a total of five photographs taken during the filming of the program. Two other photographs, three in all have the date stamp "Nov 23 1952." We assumed that date to be incorrect. But this is the third image with the "1952" date. We have a copy of the NBC (Chicago) contract signed by Wright for this episode, which is dated Nov 14, 1952. The show was filmed at the Kling Studio in Chicago. Chicago Herald American: The Chicago Evening American was published between 1914 through 1939. The Chicago Herald and Examiner was published from 1918 through 1939. In 1939, William Randolph Hearst consolidated the two papers and it became the Chicago Herald American. On April 12, 1953 the name was changed again to the Chicago American, and in 1956 it was purchased by the Chicago Tribune. This would appear to indicate that the contract was signed on November 14, 1952, the episode photographed by November 23, 1952, with the photographs published in the Herald American on November 23, 1952. It then went into production. 90 minutes of raw footage was condensed to 30 minutes, and it was broadcast on May 17, 1953. (The "1952 Oct 20" date stamp is puzzling.) It is interesting to note that at the beginning of the program, Wright’s vest is buttoned. At 1:50 it is unbuttoned, then as the angle of the camera changes, his vest is buttoned again. Two of the five photographs - buttoned, three - unbuttoned.

Description: Portrait of Frank Lloyd Wright demonstrating with his hands the difference of between organic architecture and conventional architecture, photographed at Mr. Wright’s suite at the Plaza Hotel. "Ben Raeburn of Horizon Press, the publisher of Mr. Wright's forthcoming book The Future of Architecture, alerted me in 1953 to be prepared to photograph Mr. Wright in New York. During a television interview with Hugh Downs on the Today Show some months earlier he had demonstrated with his hands the differences between organic and conventional architecture. Raeburn wanted to use the series to accompany the complete text of Mr. Wright's conversation in the book. There was no videotape then to capture the event, so Raeburn needed reenactments of each technique as illustrations. I met him at Mr. Wright's suite at the Plaza Hotel, and step-by-step we recreated the television lesson. The resulting twelve images... (3) cutting and slashing partitions."

The interview proved to be so provocative and compelling that Wallace invited Wright back for a second appearance.
