Makinson, director emeritus of the Gamble house and the leading Greene & Greene scholar, and photographer and Frank Lloyd Wright specialist Thomas A. Heinz, the book includes a black-and-white photo essay by (the actor) Brad Pitt.The actor's gimmicky pictures, shot with an infrared filter that gives trees and vegetation a ghostly spookiness, are proof of the architects' ability to inspire unlikely enthusiasts in many walks of life.
