Dorwin Teague, an industrial designer and inventor who built, quite literally, the stuff of everyday life, died Sept. 16 in Carbondale, Colo. He was 94.
Teague, who was overshadowed early in his career by his father, Walter Dorwin Teague, one of the most eminent designers of the 1920s and '30s, was responsible for some of the most recognizable artifacts of the postwar culture.
Teague left to work for his father's firm; in the 1940s and '50s, as an engineer for Bendix Aviation Corp., he designed the Lark surface-to-surface and the Loki surface-to-air liquid propellant rockets.
