Anne Tyng is a spitting image of Naomi Watts. But I digress.

Cool read though:)

I would like to thank you for sharing this information about overlooked women in the architecture history along with their images that too on the right occasion of “Women’s Day”. Today, women have their hands on in almost all areas of business, and they can never be overlooked, since they might be physically weak compared to men, but they are tactically and mentally strong compare to most men.

Coordinates, you are most welcome. I love reading and sharing things like this. I am still finding my way around the design field as a young professional and I love seeing how far women have come. Coincidentally, I came across this article in USA Today about women and making it to the top. Very interesting read! http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2013/03/10/facebook-google-sandberg-zuckerberg/1927887/

I know the article is an architecture article, but… Jane Jacobs? Beatrix Farrand – Founding member of ASLA? I suppose LAs were more progressive, starting out with Farrand and all.

Tosh K, you are absolutely right. Maybe I need to write an article about the women in landscape architecture! I know on asla.org there is an article about them. Thanks for the great input!

The film “Women in the Dirt” covering more contemporary practitioners on the West Coast is pretty amazing. A more historic look would indeed be great.
