Listen "Quantity and Quality: Modernism and More"
Episode Synopsis
In this grab bag of SoCal history, we talk with alum Sian Winship, an architectural historian with her fingers in many, many pies. She explored the world of modernist tract homes in her master’s thesis, Quantity and Quality: Architects Working for Developers in Southern California, 1960-1973. Quantity and quality also characterize this wide-ranging conversation about mid-century modernism, women’s heritage, social justice, the Civil War, and Palm Springs’ dirty secret. Sian also shares her path from advertising to conservation and how she used gravel as a career move. Connect with us on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn!
