[edit]Henry Lee Willet
[edit]Henry Lee Willet (DOB - DOD), William's son, took over the studio after his father's death. Under Henry Lee's guidance, the company expanded from a regional studio to a national studio, with completed projects in all 50 states and 14 foreign countries. Willet Studios experimented with new techniques, and in the 1950's, became one of the first studios to design and fabricate dalle de verre. Under Henry Lee's direction, the studio also developed the famous sculptured gold window technique and experimented with different methods of laminating stained glass.

Under his leadership, Willet windows were created for many of the major churches and cathedrals in the United States including the National Cathedral in Washington, DC and Saint Mary's Cathedral in San Francisco.
