'John Burgee' is an American architect important in post-modern architecture. 1956 graduate of University of Notre Dame School of Architecture. Burgee's honors also include the Reynolds Prize in Architecture. Burgee served on the Notre Dame University's Board of Trustees from 1988 until April when he was named trustee emeritus. He also has served on the School of Architecture's Advisory Council since 1982. In 2004, he received the Orlando T. Maione Award for distinguished contributions to the School of Architecture[1]
In 1968, Burgee and the late architect Philip Johnson established Johnson/Burgee Architects in Manhattan.

★ AT&T Building, New York City
★ Comerica Tower at Detroit Center, Detroit, Michigan
★ Crystal Cathedral, Garden Grove, California
★ Fort Worth Water Gardens
★ One Atlantic Center (IBM Building), Atlanta, Georgia
★ IDS Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota

''"Johnson-Burgee firm moved in 1986 into the elliptical skyscraper at 885 Third Avenue, between 53rd and 54th Streets. Popularly known as the Lipstick Building, it had been designed by the partners together. In 1984 they made their long term associate of 15 years, Raj Ahuja as their third partner. But the partnership arrangement was not to last long beyond the move: Mr. Burgee, eager to occupy center stage, negotiated a more limited role for Mr. Johnson as a design Consultant in 1986 and asked Raj Ahuja to leave the firm in 1988 end and in 1991 exercised the prerogative he had as the firm's chief executive and eased Mr. Johnson out altogether."''[2]
''"It proved an unwise decision: the firm, crippled by an arbitration."''[2]''
