본문내용
Daniel Burnham was born in Henderson, New York on September the 4th, 1846. He moved with his family to Chicago in 1855. Burnham was a lackluster student whose only talent seemed to be drawing, he sketched constantly, both in class and outside it, but his grades in the school remained dismal. Frustrated after being rejected from both Harvard and Yale, he tried his hand at several careers, first as a draftsman, a profession that he seemed to love, then as a miner in Nevada, even selling plate glass until Burnham apprenticed as a drafter under William LeBaron Jenney in Chicago. At his age 26, Burnham moved on to Chicago offices of Crater, Drake, and Wright, where he met future business partner, John Wellborn Root.
With his new partner, Burnham would become the architect of the one of the first American skyscrapers, which are very tall buildings in a city. Therefore, he has called ‘Father of Skyscrapers’. The invention of the electric elevator, light bulbs, the telephone, and the cast-iron building skeleton made the construction of this skyscraper possible. Besides, it contributed the economic development of Chicago by activating many other industries related with. At that time, the big cities were developed by more buildings and more populations.
