Renowned Textile Designer Jack Lenor Larsen Dies at 93
December 23, 2020
Jack Lenor Larsen, the visionary weaver and
Interior Design Hall of Fame member, passed away December 22 at his home in East Hampton, New York. He died of natural causes at age 93 with Peter Olsen, his companion of 30 years, by his side. Larsen not only left an indelible mark on mid-century modernism through his textiles but was also ever curious about how art and design impacted the world. His knowledge and influence extended to the realms of education and culture, and his legacy will continue to live on at LongHouse Reserve, his home and 16-acre not-for-profit nature reserve and sculpture park in East Hampton.
