This interview with Eric Lloyd Wright, grandson of Frank Lloyd Wright and son of Lloyd Wright, was conducted by the Wrightian Association in May 1989. Topics include Eric Lloyd Wright's apprenticeship under his grandfather for eight years (beginning at age 18), his practice with his father for 22 years (1956-1978), his own architectural practice (1978-present), the relationship between his grandfather and father ("turbulent"), his father's contribution to the development of the textile block system of concrete construction (steel webbing), his own house site and its development, his grandfather's daily schedule and approach to design sources (as going beyond the Japanese concept of "opening out", rather than imitating forms), etc.
