Upton, Dell.
Biographical notes:
Dell Upton, a graduate of Colgate University and Brown University, is currently Professor of Anthropology and Architecture at the University of Virginia. Previously he taught at the University of California, Berkelely. In his own words, "I study the material world as an aspect of human expressive culture. My research and publications have focused on architecture and cultural landscapes, which I see as subsets of material culture. Early in my career I worked on colonial American architecture, particularly the rural vernacular architecture of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Virginia and New England. I was interested in the social-historical aspects of architecture as well as in theories of architectural design drawn from archaeology and linguistics."
