Bernard J. Friedman (1916 - June 21, 1912) was an American Jewish architect whose work helped shape Tucson's mid-century modern commercial design.[1][2][3]
Friedman's architectural work left a mark on Tucson's mid-century modernism with his bold and expressive designs that encompassed a wide range of commercial, civic, and educational projects. His work not only reflected national and international trends but also adapted to the unique desert climate of southern Arizona.[4]
