SERVICES:WRITING / RESEARCH / INTERVIEWS / IMAGE SELECTION
Pedagogy and Place is the definitive text on the history of the Yale School of Architecture. Co-authored with Robert A. M. Stern, the book examines the school’s growth and change over the years, and traces the impact of those who taught or studied there, as well as the architecturally significant buildings that housed the program. Due to the impressive number of notable practitioners who have attended or been affiliated with the school, Pedagogy and Place also contributes a history, beyond Yale, of the architecture profession in the twentieth century. Featuring extensive archival research and illuminating firsthand accounts from alumni, faculty, and administrators, this well-rounded and engaging narrative is richly illustrated with historic photos of the school and its studios, images of student work, and important architectural achievements on and off campus.

A rich work of remarkable scholarship, Pedagogy and Place is a superb case study of American architecture education and a genuine contribution to the literature of architecture.”
