Marion Sims Wyeth
(February 17, 1889 – February 4, 1982) was an American architect. He designed mansions including
Mar-a-Lago in
Palm Beach, Florida, and
Shangri La in
Honolulu,
Hawaii.
Wyeth was born in New York City to Florence Nightingale Sims and Dr. John Allan Wyeth, who founded what is today the Stuyvesant Polyclinic Hospital in 1882[1] (which became Cabrini Medical Center). His grandfather J. Marion Sims founded the first Women's Hospital in the U.S. in 1855 (it is now part of Mount Sinai Morningside).[2]
Wyeth attended Princeton University and studied at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he was awarded the Prix Jean LeClerc in 1913 and the Deuxième Prix Rougevin in 1914.[3]
Wyeth worked at Carrère & Hastings. He moved to Palm Beach, Florida in 1919 where he founded the firm of Wyeth and King with his business partner Frederic Rhinelander King. He was the first Palm Beach architect to be elected a fellow of the American Institute of Architects.[4]
Wyeth would design numerous mansions in Palm Beach during its gilded age.
