Kaufmann Sr. residence, located fifty miles southeast of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania); Wright was the role model for the powerful 1943 novel The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand (Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum; 1905-1982) in which the protagonist, Howard Roark, is a fiercely individualistic architect, made into a 1949 film starring Gary Cooper as the embattled architect.
