Biographical History
Born in New Hampshire, Roger Hayward (1899-1979) was educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he studied architecture. Following his graduation from M. I. T., Hayward lived and worked on the east coast of the United States for the first several years of his professional life, employed by a handful of architectural firms.
A move to southern California in the early 1930s, followed by the onset of the Great Depression, saw Hayward branch out beyond the world of architecture to new avenues in both the fine and practical arts. A man of many talents, Hayward is credited with having designed and constructed a model of the moon for the Griffith Planetarium, a nut-cracking machine for the California Walnut Growers Association and the Schmidt-Cassegrain optical arrangement for telescopes, to name just a few of his artistic and industrial innovations.
Following the conclusion of World War II, Hayward helped found the architectural design firm Lunden, Hayward and O’Connor, a successful enterprise up until its dissolution in 1957. From there, Hayward began to focus more on his ambitions as a fine artist, signing contracts with both the Disney company as well as the book publisher W. H. Freeman to work as illustrator and model-maker. Hayward enjoyed a long collaboration with Dr. Linus Pauling in both roles, culminating in the 1964 publication of their co-authored book The Architecture of Molecules .
Roger and his wife Betty were married for nearly fifty-seven years. Their relationship came to a close with his death in 1979.
