Cornelia Oberlander on PRAM

If you haven't stumbled across the interview with Cornelia Oberlander on the PRAM site I recommend it highly. It's not everyday that you get a peek into the creative and domestic life of such an auspicious designer. Renowned North American Landscape Architect and Order of Canada recipient, Cornelia estimates that she's cooked 143,000 meals in 56 years of marriage (minus seven days) that included raising 3 children.

Four additional interviews should be going "live" anytime now.

Under "resources" be sure to have a look at the RIBA 2003 study titled "Why Women Leave Architecture". This document is a concise read with content that is relevant to both women and men.
