Triumvirate: McKim Mead & WhiteSlide Lecture and Book Signing with Mosette Broderick | Alfred A. Knopf. NY, Publisher 640 Pages, 159 Photographs November 2010Printed in U.S.A | Join LW! and author Mosette Broderick* for a slide lecture and book signing for the just-released Triumvirate: McKim Mead & White - Art, Architecture, Scandal, and Class in America's Gilded Age, hailed by Booklist as "a scintillating record of the complex lives and accomplishments of three adventurous architects who created American grandeur." Triumvirate is a rich, fascinating saga of the most influential, far-reaching architectural firm of their time and of the dazzling triumvirate--Charles McKim, William Mead, and Stanford White-- who came together, bound by the notion that architecture could help shape a nation in transition. *Professor Mosette Broderick is the Director of the Urban Design and Architecture Studies and the London-based MA program in Historical and Sustainable Architecture at New York University.
