CURRICULUM VITAE

I grew up in the South, received a Bachelor of Architecture degree from Auburn University in 1972, and after apprenticeships with Harry Wolf in North Carolina and Robert Hecht and Ed Burdeshaw in Georgia, returned to my native Mississippi in 1976 to begin my own practice. I forfeited my aspirations for becoming the William Faulkner of southern architecture in my early thirties (though I always come back to that thought), and left Mississippi for Harvard University, where I received a Master in Architecture degree in 1984. I was a Teaching Fellow at Harvard, subsequently taught for two years at Tulane University, and then until 1994 directed the architectural studies program of the Wesleyan University Art Department, teaching architecture as well as drawing courses. I have lectured and been a visiting critic at numerous schools of architecture, and have been architect of record for over sixty completed buildings.
