Lawson, Wendell (Arthur Wendell Phillips), 1898-1952 : Wendell Lawson was born in Toronto in 1898 and studied architecture at the University of Toronto and l'École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, 1924-1925. He returned to the University of Toronto to complete his studies in 1926.

Lawson worked as an architectural draftsman with various architectural firms during the early 1920s and during the late 1930s. From 1926 to 1932, he taught architectural design in the United States, but returned to Canada to teach at Mount Allison University and Ladies College in 1936. He moved back to Toronto and taught architecture and building construction there from 1937 to 1946. He also worked as an architect in Toronto (principally private residences). In 1947 he left Canada again to teach in the School of Architecture, Ohio State University, and he died in Ohio in 1952.

Lawson studied drawing under the Canadian artist C.W. Jefferys. He was a member of the Society of Canadian Painters-Etchers and Engravers and was its secretary 1935-1936 and its president 1939-1942. He exhibited his own work with that society, as well as exhibiting with the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts, Canadian Society of Graphic Arts, Canadian Society of Painters in Water Colour, Art Association of Montreal, and with other arts organizations. He became known as an illustrator and did a series of drawings of historical sites in Nova Scotia for the Ryerson Press. He also illustrated various Ryerson Press publications.
