Description:
Today, AD travels to Phoenix, Arizona, to tour the David and Gladys Wright house—the home designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright for his son. When your father is America’s most celebrated architect, the greatest gift he could give you is a house, and this unique home uses many of the same ideas Lloyd Wright incorporated in the design of the Guggenheim Museum. The spiral structures, often symbolizing the infinite or longevity, are poetic, as David and his wife Gladys lived to be over 100 years old in this house. After many years of neglect and threats of demolition, father-and-daughter duo Bing and Amanda Hu bought the house and have since been on a mission to restore it to its former glory, keeping its legacy alive.

Usillia Wright, from Tampa, Florida, is extremely close to her grandmother, Zina, who has been her primary caregiver since Zina was the one to raise Usillia.

Each year, Zina does something to remember her late parents on their birthdays, but after paying a visit to her mom's grave, Zina is sad about not being able to do the same thing for her father, Willie Knight Sr. A conversation about this sadness prompted Usillia to repeatedly call every cemetery in Belle Glade and the surrounding cities for two weeks. Eventually, a staff member returned to Usillia and informed her that she had located the grave she was looking for. Usillia planned to visit the grave first to clean it up and decorate it, but one morning, having dropped her daughter off at school, Usillia started talking to her grandma, who was traveling in the car with her.
