MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN “There is perhaps no greater measure of “a school’s success than for its graduates “to command the respect of those whom “they were prepared to serve.” Each year the College of Architecture at Texas A&M University hosts a special event honoring the many extraordinary former students who over the years have laid the foundation on which the college has built a tradition of excellence through academics and research. The Outstanding Alumni Award is the highest honor the college bestows on its former students. There is perhaps no greater measure of a school’s success than for its graduates to command the respect of those whom they were prepared to serve. The former students we honor this year, as well as those recognized previously, have not only gained the respect of their peers, but have been acclaimed as pioneers in their respective fields. They have advanced their professions with new knowledge wrought through innovation, extraordinary talent, and hard work.

Stackable 2006 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Lewis T. May so thoughtfully provided his time, project materials and insights which have enabled the creation of this thesis. I would also like to thank Ken Bailey, his studio manager for working with me to schedule visits and interviews and ensuring that I received the necessary information to complete this thesis. I also need to thank his associates who gave of their time: Nancy Fleshman, Verrick Walker, Sandy Lynch, Richard Rome, Van Cox, and M. David Low. Without these folks, it would not have been possible to obtain a full and complete understanding of the many roles and contributions May has made to the field. Additionally, I would like to thank my committee chair, Gary O. Robinette and the other committee members, Dr. Pat Taylor and David Hopman for having faith in my ability to complete the thesis while I resided three hundred miles away from their expertise and guidance. Last, but certainly not least, my husband, Phil, for encouraging me to remain focused and helping me overcome the obstacles I encountered during this process. This exegesis would not have been possible without his support and faith in allowing me to attend the MLA program at the University of Texas at Arlington while he remained back at the homestead in Houston.
