Louis H. Sullivan (1856–1924) was an influential American architect, often referred to as the "father of skyscrapers" and "father of modernism." He was a key figure in the Chicago School of architecture and is best known for his philosophy that "form follows function." Sullivan's work laid the foundation for modernist architectural design, and he mentored Frank Lloyd Wright. His notable works include the Wainwright Building in St. Louis and the Carson Pirie Scott Building in Chicago. Sullivan also wrote extensively on architecture, including his book "The Autobiography of an Idea."
