The Hinsdale Historical Society unveiled its new original short video, highlighting the life and work of famed architect R. Harold Zook at a reception this fall. The outdoor reception took place at the Zook Home and Studio at Katherine Legge Memorial Park. The video titled “A Web of History–A Recollection of R. Harold Zook’s Designs and Influence on Hinsdale,” details the architect’s life and contributions, as well as HHS’s award-winning campaign to save and relocate the home and studio built in 1924 for Zook and his wife. During the reception, guests were also invited to take small-group architecture tours led by docents and volunteers of the exterior of the home and interior of the studio. hinsdalehistory.org
