<quote>In New York, Brown joined the first office of McKim, Mead & White in 1879; he left for a brief period and joined it again in 1882. At that time, architecture could be learned by a kind of apprenticeship, in which men joined first as draftsmen working with established architects, similar to reading law. After an extensive tour of Europe in 1883-1884, Pryor rejoined the firm in 1884. At that point, he started doing some side work for Mrs. Cyrus McCormick. With her patronage, he opened his own office in December 1884, under the name A. Page Brown, as he became known.</quote>
