Louise
A. Mozingo
Associate
Professor, Department of Landscape Architecture
Prof. Mozingo received her Master in Landscape Architecture
from University of California, Berkeley and undergraduate
degrees in Biology and Art History from the College of William
and Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia. A former Associate and senior
landscape architect for Sasaki Associates, Prof. Mozingo joined
department after a decade of professional practice, managing
a range of master planning and design projects.
Prof. Mozingo’s research and creative work focuses on
ecological design, landscape history, and social processes
in public landscapes. Landscape architectural research usually
considers ecology, history, and social factors separately;
the purpose of Prof. Mozingo’s scholarship is to breach
the intellectual boundaries between them to produce a synthetic
critical perspective of landscape architecture as a complex
cultural artifact. Her particular concern is the planning
and design of collective and public open spaces that produce
both ecological and social sustainability, and thrive to support
civil society in an increasingly multi-cultural world. Her
research contributes to landscape architectural scholarship,
as well as to a profession eager for discernment and insight.
Prof. Mozingo has been the recipient of Harvard University's
Dumbarton Oaks Fellowship for Studies in Landscape Architecture,
the Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture Award of
Recognition for Excellence in Teaching, Writing, and Service,
and the University of California, Berkeley Chancellor's Award
of Recognition for University and Community Partnerships.
Professor Mozingo’s articles and reviews have appeared
in Places, Landscape Journal, Journal of the History of
Gardens and Designed Landscapes, Landscape Architecture Magazine,
Geographical Review, and the Journal of the Society
of Architectural Historians. She has contributed chapters
to Everyday America; Cultural Landscape Studies after
J.B. Jackson (2003) edited by Chris Wilson and Paul Groth
and the forthcoming Healing Natures edited by Robert
France.
