Architect Philip Johnson, born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1906, has become one of architecture's most potent forces. Before designing his first building at the age of 36, Johnson had been client, critic, author, historian, museum director, but not an architect. In 1949, after a number of years as the Museum of Modern Art's first director of the Architecture Department, Johnson designed a residence for himself in New Canaan, Connecticut for his master degree thesis, the now famous Glass House. Philip Johnson was the first recipient ot the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize when it was established in 1979.
