Chronicles the rise, fall and resurrection of the father of the American Arts and Crafts movement. Herb Strattford offers an unprecedented look at the life and work of Stickley through interviews, archival materials, and a close examination of hiss most iconic works. The documentary traces the development and evolution of Stickley's unique style as well as the creation of his diverse businesses, including furniture manufacturing, a ground-breaking Manhattan store, and the Craftsman magazine and Craftsman Farms--a progenitor of the farm-to-table movement. It also details the eventual loss of his businesses, and, after several decades, the rebirth and recognition of the movement he inspired. -- Adapted from container.
