Walter Dorwin Teague
Walter Dorwin Teague (born 1883, died 1960) was a forerunner in the field of industrial design. He and his design company made designs of cameras, cars, radios, aeroplane interior, Steinway pianos, non-electric copying facilities ("mimeopgraph"), gasoline station equipment, glassware, military missiles and much more. As architect he planned the Centennial Dome in Richmond, Virginia.
Since 1928 he made camera designs for Kodak, later also for Polaroid. Thus he influenced camera design of the most popular American camera makers.
His son followed him successfully in the industrial design business.
