Smith, architecture historian and author of the new book: &quot;Designing Detroit: Wirt Rowland and the Rise of Modern American Architecture.&quot; Wirt Rowland was a Clinton native and graduated from Clinton High School in 1896. He went to Detroit to work in an architectural office in 1901 and stayed there designing the sky with three skyscrapers, the Buhl, Penobscot and the Gaurdian Building. The Historical Society of Clinton did an exhibition in Wirt Rowland&rsquo;s honor in 2004. Since then interest in Rowland has increased and Michael Smith&rsquo;s book on Rowland adds to the recognition of his genius and architectural achievements.<\/p>\n<p>Michael G. Smith is a Detroit-area architecture historian with an interest in early twentieth-century building and construction. His lifelong enthusiasm for the fine arts led to an early career as a graphic artist and, more recently, his photography work has been published internationally. The new book: &quot;Designing Detroit: Wirt Rowland and the Rise of Modern American Architecture,&quot; will be available for purchase, and Michael G. Smith will be available for book signings as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%; widows: 2; orphans: 2\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%; widows: 2; orphans: 2;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Times New Roman, serif\">PROGRAM: &ldquo;<u><strong>HISTORY OF MACON, MICHIGAN<\/strong><\/u>&rdquo;<\/font><\/font><\/h1>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%; widows: 2; orphans: 2\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Times New Roman, serif\">PRESENTER: <u><strong>EDWARD CLARK<\/strong><\/u><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%; widows: 2; orphans: 2\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Times New Roman, serif\">DATE: <u><strong>MARCH 28, 2017 AT 7PM<\/strong><\/u><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%; widows: 2; orphans: 2\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Times New Roman, serif\">LOCATION: <u><strong>CLINTON TOWNSHIP PUBLIC LIBRARY<\/strong><\/u><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%; widows: 2; orphans: 2\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Times New Roman, serif\"><font style=\"font-size: 11pt\">Mr. Edward Clark, lifelong resident of Macon Township will present a program on Macon.
