Leigh Hilton is working on her MA in Architectural History at the University of Virginia, where she’ll graduate, Spring 2015. Her thesis is A Historiographic Evaluation of the Literature Surrounding the 1988 Deconstructivist Architecture Exhibition at the MoMA. She’s looking to follow that with a Ph.D. in the Constructed Environment.
She will be presenting a paper at a conference in late May, and is part of a symposium called “The Authentic Renovated.” Her paper will be included in the publication proceedings later this year. More information can be found at http://www.edra.org/content/edra45neworleans.
Leigh is also very excited to be working as a TA this summer at the Newport RI Summer School for Richard Guy Wilson, renowned scholar, noted author, and chair of the Department of Architectural history at the University of Virginia.

In her ‘spare’ time, brw is thrilled that Leigh manages some part time hours at the office during the school year, and we look forward to having her full time, again, this summer.
