Parsons The New School for Design and The Architectural League of New York presents a keynote address and panel discussion by Susana Torre.

Susana Torre, editor and curator of Women in American Architecture: A Historic and Contemporary Perspective exhibition and catalog, organized in 1977 by the Architectural League of New York through its Archive of Women in Architecture will deliver a keynote address on the impact that feminism has already had on architecture and urbanism in the past 30 years, and speculate on why this has not been broadly acknowledged.

Following will be a discussion examining necessary changes for our recalcitrant professional and academic architectural cultures. This exchange, across a broad spectrum of practitioners and educators, focuses on analysis as well as setting a new agenda for change.

Panelists include:
 - Peggy Deamer, assistant dean and professor at Yale School of Architecture
 - Stella Betts, architect, principal, LEVENBETTS
 - Yolande Daniels, principal, Studio Sumo 
 - Andrea Merrett, PhD candidate, Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation

Moderator:
 - Lori Brown, associate professor Syracuse University School of Architecture
