A granddaughter of American architect Frank Lloyd Wright, she studied under his tutelage at his Taliesin studio at age 15. She later established an architect's practice in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with her husband, Gordon Ingraham, which adhered to Wright's architectural styles. In 1970 she formed her own architectural firm, Elizabeth Wright Ingraham and Associates, which she led until her retirement in 2007. She is credited with the design of approximately 150 buildings in Colorado Springs and other western locales. She also founded and directed the Wright-Ingraham Institute, which invites students and visiting faculty to conferences and workshops on environmental issues. She was posthumously inducted into the Colorado Women's Hall of Fame in 2014. Early life and educationElizabeth Wright was born in 1922 in Oak Park, Illinois, to John Lloyd Wright, an architect, and his second wife Hazel (nee Lundin). She was a granddaughter of Frank Lloyd Wright.[1][2][1] She decided to pursue a career in architecture at age 14.[4] The following year, she studied at her grandfather's studio, Taliesin, under his tutelage.[2] She went on to study architecture under Ludwig Mies van der Rohe at the Armour Institute in Chicago, and also took courses at the University of California, Berkeley.[2] She was a draftsman for the United States Navy in World War II.[2] She gained her architect's license in 1947.[1] CareerIn 1948, she and her husband, Gordon Ingraham, also an architect, moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado, to establish their own practice.[1][1] They chose the city for its design opportunities and dearth of competition.[1] Ingraham & Ingraham, Architects adhered to Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian and Prairie styles, producing "modest homes affordable to the upper middle class".[1][13] Their partnership produced more than 90 home designs in the 1950s, including the Beadles House in Colorado Springs.[2] They also designed one home in North Dakota (the George and Beth Anderson House, entered into the National Register of Historic Places in 2017), and two homes in Minnesota.[3][4] By 1970, Wright Ingraham wanted to move away from her grandfather's styles and develop new architectural approaches.[1] That year she founded her own firm, which she called Elizabeth Wright Ingraham and Associates.[2] She went on to design approximately 150 buildings in Colorado Springs,[1][5] including the Vista Grande Community Church (1987),[6] an expansion of the Fountain Branch of the El Paso Country Library (2006),[22][5] an upper story addition to the All Souls Unitarian Church,[7] and the Solaz, La Casa, Kaleidoscope, Beadles, and Vradenburg private homes.[8][5][22][28] Wright Ingraham retired at the age of 85.[28] Architectural style{{Quote box|width=250px |align=right |quoted=true |bgcolor= |salign=right |quote= Architecture is a message a civilization leaves about itself to the future. |source=–Elizabeth Wright Ingraham[9] }} Following her grandfather's lead, Wright Ingraham designed homes that had "low-slung" exteriors, integrated into the landscape, incorporated natural light, used organic building materials, and offered exceptional outdoor views.[22] Her design for the Vista Grande Community Church used an "energy-efficient, easy-to-maintain, insulated concrete called Thermomass", being one of the first buildings in the country to do so.[10] Her plan for the Kaleidoscope house included a {{convert|100|ft|adj=on}} skylight.[10] Other activitiesIn 1970, the same year she founded her architectural practice, Wright Ingraham established the non-profit Wright-Ingraham Institute for the study of land use and natural resources.[2][5] The institute invites students and visiting faculty to conferences and workshops on environmental issues.[5] Wright Ingraham directed the institute for its first 20 years; it is now governed by a board that includes two of her daughters.[5] Wright Ingraham also founded Crossroads, an international exchange program affiliated with Colorado College, and was a cofounder of the Women's Forum of Colorado.[5] She also engaged in community activism, at one point participating in a peace march in Colorado Springs.[1] Affiliations and membershipsWright Ingraham was a fellow of the American Institute of Architects[2] and served as president of its Colorado chapter in 2002.[41] She was a member of the State Board of Examiners of Architects (1980–1990)[41] and the advisory board of the Frank Lloyd Wright Conservancy,[43] among other advisory boards and task forces. Awards and honorsWright Ingraham received an honorary doctorate from the University of Colorado in 1999.[11] She was posthumously inducted into the Colorado Women's Hall of Fame in 2014.[12][13] Personal lifeShe met her husband, Louis Gordon Ingraham (1915–1999), while both were studying at Taliesin.[2][1] The couple had one son and three daughters.[5] They divorced in 1974.[14] One daughter, Catherine Ingraham, became an architect and professor of graduate architecture and urban planning at the Pratt Institute in New York.[5] After residing in Colorado Springs for 65 years, Wright Ingraham moved to her son's home in San Antonio, Texas, in January 2013.[5] She died of congestive heart failure on September 15, 2013, aged 91.[15] Coincidentally, her grandfather Frank Lloyd Wright had died at the same age.[5] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite web|title=An Architect in Her Own Wright|first=Amy|last=Phare|url=http://www.modernindenver.com/2014/08/an-architect-in-her-own-wright/|work = Modern in Denver|date=August 20, 2014|accessdate = January 25, 2018}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {{cite web |url=http://search.vaheritage.org/vivaxtf/view?docId=vt/viblbv01822.xml&chunk.id=&toc.depth=1&toc.id=&brand=default|title=Elizabeth Wright Ingraham and Gordon Ingraham Christmas Card Designs, c.1950s (not after 1974)|work=Virginia Heritage|year=2015|accessdate=February 13, 2019}} 3. ^1 {{cite journal|last=Stern|first=John|date=2017|title=A Small House with Lots of Significance|url=https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5005af92c4aa8b4d9760cd96/t/5a563e4724a69418868a3e9f/1515601481497/2017++Vol++9+No+2+Summer+Newsletter.pdf|journal=Prairie Places|publisher=Preservation North Dakota|volume=9|issue=2|page=2|pages=|via=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://history.nd.gov/hp/PDFinfo/SG100001221-George-and-Beth-Anderson-House.pdf|title=George and Beth Anderson House|work=National Register of Historic Places|date=May 2, 2017|accessdate=February 13, 2019}} 5. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 {{Cite web|title = Architect Elizabeth Wright Ingraham dies at age 91|url = https://gazette.com/news/architect-elizabeth-wright-ingraham-dies-at-age/article_a0d3c498-04e0-5f35-8842-b5358f731b9b.html |first=Wayne|last=Heilman|date=September 24, 2013 |work= Colorado Springs Gazette|accessdate = February 13, 2019}} 6. ^{{cite web |url= http://vgcc.org/our-past/|title=Our Past|publisher=Vista Grande Community Church|year=2019|accessdate=February 13, 2019}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=https://coloradoencyclopedia.org/article/all-souls-unitarian-church|title=All Souls Unitarian Church|work=Colorado Encyclopedia|accessdate=February 13, 2019}} 8. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://www.csindy.com/coloradosprings/wrights-angle/Content?oid=1114322|title=Wright's Angle|first=Marina|last=Eckler|date=March 28, 2002|accessdate=February 13, 2019|work=Colorado Springs Independent}} 9. ^{{cite web |url= https://www.ncronline.org/blogs/my-table-spread/messages-air-and-architecture |title=Messages in Air and Architecture|first=Melissa Musick|last=Nussbaum|date=July 16, 2012|accessdate=February 13, 2019|work=National Catholic Reporter}} 10. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url=https://www.denverpost.com/2006/06/07/a-man-ahead-of-his-time/|title=A man ahead of his time|first=Claire|last=Walter|date=June 7, 2006|accessdate=February 15, 2019|work=The Denver Post}} 11. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=https://madison.com/news/local/obituaries/ingraham-elizabeth-wright/article_e6b35316-ab97-51e7-93dc-f408dd962573.html |title=Ingraham, Elizabeth Wright|date=September 21, 2013|accessdate=February 13, 2019|work=madison.com}} 12. ^1 {{cite web|title=Elizabeth Wright Ingraham|url=http://www.cogreatwomen.org/project/elizabeth-wright-ingraham/|publisher=Colorado Women's Hall of Fame|accessdate=February 13, 2019}} 13. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.csbj.com/2014/03/20/hall-of-fame-honors-springs-women/|title=Hall of fame honors Springs women|date=March 20, 2014|accessdate=February 13, 2019|work=Colorado Springs Business Journal}} 14. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=https://www.curbed.com/2017/8/28/16204924/elizabeth-wright-ingraham-midcentury-modern-architect-colorado|title=Elizabeth Wright Ingraham: Master of architecture and ecology|first=Patrick|last=Sisson|date=August 28, 2017|accessdate=February 20, 2019|work=Curbed}} 15. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Elizabeth Wright Ingraham, 1922–2013 |first=Catherine|last=Ingraham|authorlink=Catherine Ingraham|url = https://archpaper.com/2014/03/elizabeth-wright-ingraham-1922-2013/ |date=March 3, 2014|accessdate=January 25, 2018|work=The Architect's Newspaper}} External links
