About this person
Much of her work was commissioned by women from her social group in Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts. One client called her “an architect who combines a respect for tradition with a disrespect for its limitations”. The author of a monograph on her life praised her work for its "subtle simplicity without succumbing to architectural exhibitionism".
