Add to basketExhibition Catalog Of The Museum Of The City of New York ALBRECHT, Donald [96] pp. Pointed Leaf Press 2006 9 1/4" x 6 3/4" "Featuring photographs, designs, artwork, and ephemera from the collection of Dorothy Draper & Company, Inc. The life and career of New York's decorating maven. Dorothy Draper was a pioneer in interior design, dominating the field, not only in New York but nationally, from 1925 to 1960 when she was named the most influential tastemaker in America. Extending her influence far beyond residential interiors, Draper made her mark on big-city hotels, resorts, offices, department stores, and apartment buildings she even styled automobile and airplane interiors. And she was thoroughly modern in today s terms in that she approached design as entertainment a themed experience that ranged from a room's architecture to its furnishings, menus, and matchbooks. That she was a woman makes her achievements all the more remarkable, succeeding at a time when she had few counterparts in the business world. The High Style of Dorothy Draper examines many aspects of this remarkable woman's life and career. Rarely seen drawings, sample books, vintage photographs, furnishings, and products will be displayed in galleries that evoke the "Draper touch." Her most important design commissions are featured, including The Carlyle Hotel and Hampshire House in New York City, The Camellia House restaurant at the Drake Hotel in Chicago, The Greenbrier in West Virginia, and the Arrowhead Springs Resort & Spa in California. Draper s national influence will be demonstrated with newspaper and magazine articles, advertisements, and a rare video of her appearance on Edward R. Murrow s television program in the 1950 s.
