On a recent Sunday I returned to the campus of Stanford University. Although I did not attend this famous western house of learning, I felt as if I grew up here. Indeed the campus is in my bloodlines.
My father graduated from Stanford in , at time when the Farm was more affordable and you didnt need an outrageous GPA to be accepted. This may have been considered a betrayal because my grandfather attended Cal (University of California at Berkeley), Stanfords bitter rival. (The previous day Stanford defeated Cal in the Big Game ).
My parents were married at the Memorial Church on August 3, and they settled just south of the campus in The Valley of Hearts Delight among the apricot and cherry orchards in Sunnyvale. This area would be transformed, its orchards yielding to concrete, and the area would be rechristened Silicon Valley.
My father would bring my younger brother and I to Stanford football scrimmages and sometimes a baseball game. I loved the Stanford Bookstore, one of the best in the area, and sadly one of the few left. The campus is filled with beautiful buildings placed among the coast live oaks and palm trees. The center piece was the church before me.
I sketched the church from a circular planter in The Quad, just off center to the

This article, by Alexandra Lange, originally appeared on Metropolis Magazine as "Architecture's Lean In Moment."
“Women are the ghosts of modern architecture, everywhere present, crucial, but strangely invisible,” writes historian Beatriz Colomina in “With, Or Without You,” an essay in the Museum of Modern Art’s catalog, Modern Women. “Architecture is deeply collaborative, more like moviemaking than visual art, for example. But unlike movies, this is hardly ever acknowledged.”
Colomina goes on to chronicle the history of modernism’s missing women, acknowledged, if at all, as working “with” Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, or Charles Eames. To put yourself in the shoes of Lilly Reich, Charlotte Perriand, and Aino Aalto, simply watch the cringe-worthy video of the Eameses on the Home show in ; Ray['s] introduced as the “very capable woman behind him” who enters after Charles has bantered with host Arlene Francis.
