		As she described in her autobiographical "Distant Music", Olgivanna believed in mysticism and had become convinced that Svetlana was a spiritual replacement for her own daughter Svetlana, who had married Wright's chief apprentice William Wesley Peters, and who had died in a car crash years before.
		Amazingly, Alliluyeva came to Arizona, agreed to marry Peters within a matter of weeks, migrated with the Taliesin Fellowship back and forth between Scottsdale and Spring Green, Wisconsin, and adopted the name Lana Peters.
		In 1982 she moved with her daughter to Cambridge, England, and in 1984 returned to the Soviet Union, where she and her daughter were granted citizenship, and settled in Tbilisi, Georgia.

	Wright's Baghdad opera house and Gammage Auditorium: in search of regional modernity. - The Art Bulletin - HighBeam ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Since the 1980s, as William Curtis and Alan Colquhoun have written, in regionalist theory, an authentic modern architecture in different parts of the world must be firmly based on specific local practices rooted in climate, geography, materials, and cultural traditions.
		Peters thought that this auditorium was the first to employ continental seating not only on the main floor but also on the main balcony or grand tier (seating 601) and upper balcony (seating 668), making steeper floor slopes on these levels possible.
		Peters claimed that continental seating for the two balconies was unprecedented, and that its acoustic and visual advantages were "made feasible and economically practicable by the arch bridges which form a prominent feature of the exterior design and which provide emergency exits from all upper levels."

		The intercutting of the architectural vistas, to Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, borders on the sublime.
		A battery of experts -- William Cronon, Neil Levine, Paul Goldberger, Vincent Scully -- speaks authoritatively about the man they agree is the finest architect the United States has produced.
