Alden B. Dow

"Alden Dow was a midwesterner by birth, but he left a legacy national in nature. Active from the early 1930s through the late 1970s, he designed some six hundred projects - often daringly modern houses and religious buildings, schools and colleges, business and civic structures, and even a new town in Texas. Dow changed the face of his hometown of Midland, Michigan, leaving it more than one hundred houses, offices and plants for The Dow Chemical Company, churches, banks, schools, and recreational structures." "Nowhere is Dow's talent more evident than in his Home and Studio in Midland, a National Historic Landmark. Alden B. Dow: Midwestern Modern tells the story of both this exceptional residence and the architect who spent a half century developing his vision of a more humane way of building."--Jacket.
