Frank Lloyd Wright and Imogen Cunningham have at least
one thing in common. They pulled themselves up by their bootstraps, so
to speak. They both believed that the only way they were going to make
it in this world was to believe in their own propaganda --- to firmly
believe that they were the best and to keep reaffirming their own worth
until finally it became an irresistible force. It would be very apt to
have at least some of Wright's drawings, something that would identify
him as an architect, in the background. I don't want the background to
distract from the essence of the person. I am more concerned with the
feeling that might come from his hands. As an architect, his hands are
important. I think his face conveys the wise old owl spirit of the man.
