Description
Description
Singer Buchanan of Eastern Michigan University and Stanley Donner of the University of Texas talk with producer Ralph Johnson of WHA-Radio. Interview occurred during the intermission of the Spring 1968 conference on Mass media and urban turbulence at The Johnson Foundation at Wingspread, Racine, Wisconsin. In 1936, Herbert Fisk Johnson, Jr. (1899-1978) commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to design a new administration building for S.C. Johnson and Son, Inc., (also known as Johnson Wax), the family business which has since been renamed SC Johnson, A Family Company. Johnson loved the plan so much he later commissioned Wright to design his new home. Completed in 1939, Wright called the 14,000-foot creation Wingspread, because its four wings embrace the prairie, while the roof over the central Great Hall soars skyward. On June 24, 1961, the Johnson family formally dedicated Wingspread to The Johnson Foundation to be used as a conference center.
