Donald MacDonald (stained glass)
Donald MacDonald (1841-1916) was a leading stained glass artisan and designer in 19th century Boston. Born Donald McDonald, he altered the spelling of his surname to "MacDonald" around 1877. 〔Lance Kasparian, "The Stained Glass Work of Donald MacDonald of Boston: A Preliminary Study," The Journal of Stained Glass XXVII, (London: The British Society of Master Glass Painters) 2004.〕
==Early life==
Born in 1841, the son of a Scottish farmer, in the Gorbals district of Glasgow, MacDonald was trained as a glass painter in London. By 1863, he was a partner in the London firm of McMillan & McDonald of Camden Town, furnishing stained glass for the New Stepney Meetinghouse (destroyed) in the Tower Hamlets district of East London.〔The Illustrated London News (12 December 1863).〕 In 1868, he settled in Boston, probably at the urging of William Robert Ware (1832-1915), founder of the school of architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Ware was instrumental in MacDonald's early career in Boston, providing professional introductions and commissions, using samples of MacDonald's glass work to illustrate his lectures and commending MacDonald publicly for his efforts to improve the art of stained glass in the U.S.
