He commissioned Beaumont Mood to make pottery lamps, planters, and urns for each building. Beaumont and his wife, Betty, made the light fixtures for the library. The 1981 expansion to the Emily Fowler Library added a split-level floor and a breezeway to the front of the building. In addition to more Beaumont Mood pottery lamps, Ford approached another San Antonio artisan, Charlene de Jori to make exterior lighting for the front of the building.  Subject The topic of the resource Denton (Tex.) - Libraries - History Public Libraries - Texas - Denton O'Neil Ford Beaumont Mood Betty Mood Southwestern Art ceramicists pottery lights architects Mid-Century Modern Charlene de Jori Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Denton Public Library Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource All rights reserved.
