Stubbins, Hugh, 1912-2006 - Social Networks and Archival Context (original) (raw)
Hugh Stubbins graduated from the Georgia Institute of Technolgy in 1931 and was awarded the MArch by the Harvard Graduart School of Design in 1935. At the invitation of Walter Gropius, Stubbins taught for more than a decade during the 1940's and 1950's at the GSD; in 1954 he left teaching to devote himself to his architectural firm, which was to become a highly successful international practice. Stubbins is perhaps best-known as the architect of large-scale urban structures which have become recognizable landmarks in urban skylines : the Berlin Kongresshalle, Manhattan's Citicorp Building and Boston's Federal Reserve Bank. He is also widely regarded for his education-related designs, which range from a number of suburban schools to Harvard's Countway Library, Pusey Library and Loeb Drama Center.
