Van Day Truex is widely regarded as the father of twentieth-century American design. Under his leadership, Parsons School of Design became the foremost school for interior design and fashion in the United States and he influenced generations of students entering these fields. But his greatest legacy-beautifully chronicled in Van Day Truex-is his long reign as design director at Tiffany & Co., which he transformed into a model for unprecedented style and grace. Interior designers, architects, fashion devotees, and furniture designers will treasure this first-ever portrait of Truex. He was born on March 5, 1904, according to the biographer of Van Day Truex, Adam Lewis. This information appears on page 12 of Van Day Truex:The Man Who Defined Twentieth-Century Taste and Style.
