BiographyMarion Parker was the first female graduate in the College of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Michigan in 1895; the university awards two female students annually to honor her (at least in the mid-1970s).[2] After graduating she worked on skyscrapers in New York City.[2] She worked for William Gray Purcell and George Fieck in their Minneapolis office becoming their first draghter in 1908[3] and by 1912 became an important member in the small firm.[4] She produced working drawings for leaded glass panels and other craft items.[7] Established in 1909,[5] Purcell & Elmslie has been described as one of the most prolific of the Prairie School.[4] After adding George Grant Elmslie as partner in 1909, the firm dissolved in 1921.[4] However, Parker left in 1919 to start her own office.[4] In addition to architecture, Parker was a craftswoman. A member of the Minneapolis Arts and Crafts Society, she was also worked in textiles, especially rugs in the early 1900s; was a charter member of the chalk and chisel club; and garnered an exhibit prize in 1914.[6] In retirement she moved to Luguna Beach and opened an arts and crafts shop,[4] named "The Home-Spun Shop".[3] Located in an arts colony she participated in Summer art fairs.[6] While travelling to visit Purcell, she died of a heart attack.[6] Parker's collection is at the Northwest Architectural Archives, University of Minnesota Libraries, as are Purcell's papers.[4] Works
