Biographical History
Architect; New York, N.Y.
A practicing architect, Hood was a partner in the New York City architectural firm Raymond Hood, Godley & Fouiloux and also in Howells & Hood.
One of the most important shapers of urban form in the United States during the early 20th century, Raymond Mathewson Hood (1881-1934) studied architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Hood worked in the offices of Cram, Goodhue & Ferguson and Palmer & Hornbostle prior to establishing his practice in New York City in 1914. His reputation was built by a succession of trend-setting skyscrapers, starting with his competition-winning entry for the Chicago Tribune Tower (completed 1925), continuing with his more original designs for The Daily News Building (completed 1930), the McGraw-Hill Building (completed 1931), and Rockefeller Center (completed between 1931 and 1940) by Hood, Godley & Fouilhoux, in association with Reinhard & Hofmeister and Corbett, Harrison & McMurray.
