Julia Morgan, Architect (1872-1957)
Julia Morgan has won the 2014 AIA Gold medal posthumously!! The American Institute of Architects (AIA) has awarded this metal for 106 years. This is the first to a woman. It is a powerful statement for woman and architects everywhere. Yippie! What a historical event and I’m right in the middle of it all!
I’m so excited about Julia Morgan and the coming year! I know it’s going to be a big one.

Kimberly considers herself a maverick, which means an unorthodox or independent-minded person or an unbranded calf or yearling. She prefers the first definition.
A writer, an architect and historian, an artist, and most recently, a musician, she is fascinated with juxtapositions like positive and negative, beauty and ugly, sublime and repulsive, black and white, reality and fantasy; and with the notion of the “other” and what it means to be human. She is also a bit obsessed with simulation theory. Kimberly currently spends her time between playwriting and bartending at her favorite dive bars.

Sudden thought/suggestion for the title of an architecture-related blog — “Dancing about Architecture”. But maybe it’s been done before. (This after the quote, “Writing about music is like dancing about architecture”, variously attributed to everyone from Martin Mull, to Laurie Anderson, to Frank Zappa.
