Mysery surrounds the background of Jim Thompson, a retired CIA agent he
re engineered the failing silk industry and collected unique artifacts
including restoring several homes, all of which are part of the
informative tour.
Jim Thompson or James Harrison Wilson Thompson was born in Greenville,
Delaware in 1906. He attended public schools in Wilmington, went on to boarding
school at St. Paul's and attended Princeton University, the family university,
from 1924 to 1928.
Although Thompson had a keen interest in art, he chose to become an
architect and went on to study architecture at the University of Pennsylvania.
He was a practicing architect in New York City until 1940.
The Jim Thompson House is the home of James H.W. Thompson, a self-made American entrepreneur who was the
founder of the world renowned Jim Thompson Thai Silk Company. Thompson's
achievements during his 25 year stay in the Kingdom of Thailand have won him much
fame as the "Legendary American of Thailand".
For his contribution to the development of the Thai Silk industry, Jim
Thompson was awarded the Order of the White Elephant, a decoration bestowed
upon foreigners for having rendered exceptional service to Thailand.
Thompson's
success story in Thailand has become one of the most popular postwar legends of
Asia.
In 1967, Jim Thompson went on holiday with friends to the Cameron
Highlands in Malaysia. There he set out for a walk in the surrounding jungle
but never returned. Thus began the Jim Thompson legend.
