Histórico
Born in Poland in 1921, John Schreiber undertook his studies in Warsaw. At the outbreak of World War II, and following the occupation of his country by Germany, he fled to England in 1940, where he joined the Polish Navy. Following the cessation hostilities, John Schreiber studied architecture at the University of Glasgow, where he graduated with a B.Sc. (Arch.) in 1951. The next year he emigrated to Canada and Montreal. There, he worked briefly with Philip Goodfellow before being appointed to the faculty of the School of Architecture, McGill University. In 1957, he was made Assistant Professor and six years later Associate Professor. During a sabbatical leave in 1963, he received a Master's degree in Landscape Architecture from Harvard University. During his time at McGill, John Schreiber undertook numerous commissions, including the Solominium Building, on St. Mathieu Street, at the corner of Rene Lesvesque Boulevard (across the street from the Canadian Centre for Architecture) in Montreal; and two private residences in the Thousand Islands area: Mr. Robert Hewitt, and Mr. and Mrs. C. Vandendries. John Schreiber currently lives on the banks of the Tay River, outside of Perth, Ontario, in a home designed by himself, and which "sums up a career's worth of ideas about his approach to architecture."
