Donald Perry Polsky, FAIA (September 30, 1928 - ), is an American architect noted for his mid-century modern style. Polsky brought California modern style to the Midwest. He is also credited with being a pioneer of the design-build concept. Polsky was born in Milwaukee, WI on September 30, 1928, and grew up in Lincoln, NE. He graduated from the University Of Nebraska College of Engineering and Architecture (now College of Architecture) with a BA in 1951.〔http://communities.aia.org/sites/hdoaa/wiki/Wiki%20Pages/1962%20American%20Architects%20Directory.aspx〕 Polsky served in the United States Air Force from 1951-53.
