Summary:
"A visual and global chronicle of the triumphs, challenges, and impact of over 100
women
in architecture, from early practitioners to contemporary leaders. Marion Mahony Griffin passed the architectural licensure exam in 1898 and created exquisite drawings that buoyed the reputation of Frank Lloyd Wright. Her story is one of the many told in 'The
Women
Who Changed Architecture,' which sets the record straight on the transformative impact
women
have made on architecture. With in-depth profiles and stunning images, this is the most comprehensive look at
women
in architecture around the world, from the nineteenth century to today. Discover contemporary leaders, like MacArthur Fellow Jeanne Gang, spearheading sustainable design initiatives, reimagining cities as equitable spaces, and directing architecture schools. An essential read for architecture students,
architects
, and anyone interested in how buildings are created and the history behind them."
