Ward Bennett

by Elizabeth Beer

A much-revered figure in the design world, Ward Bennett contributed to the fields of interiors, furniture, pottery, tableware, and sculpture, working with the day's most affluent clients -- David Rockefeller, Chase Manhattan Bank, Tiffany & Co., Sasaki, and Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner, among others. This, the first and only comprehensive monograph covering Bennett's career, brings to life his little-archived work through beautiful photography, a period interview, and an exclusive essay by former New York Times design editor Pilar Viladas.
