Rich Freitas works for the National Park Service in cultural landscape preservation. He received his master’s degree in landscape architecture from the University of Washington and served on the City of Seattle’s Landmarks Preservation Board. He lives in Northern California.
Janet Gracyk is a landscape architect, now retired, who specialized in the study of historic landscapes. She received her master’s degree in landscape architecture from the University of California, Berkeley, after more than 15 years of designing residential landscapes. It was during her studies at Cal that she was introduced to the study of historic and culturally significant landscapes, which she found even more intriguing than design. In 2007 she left her job with a landscape design/build company to pursue cultural landscapes work and was fortunate to obtain a four-month internship with the National Park Service for the Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) program. With additional training, Janet focused her practice on historic landscapes with special attention to documentation, analysis, and treatment plans.
Among favorite projects were cultural landscapes reports for the historic gold mining town of North Bloomfield, a part of Malakoff Diggins State Historic Park, in Nevada County; Vikingsholm and Pine Lodge at Lake Tahoe; and a National Register nomination for Pond Farm Pottery in Sonoma County. Janet resides in Petaluma.
Luke Leuschner is a California-based researcher who focuses on the history of the Southern California desert’s architecture, urbanism, and identity. Some of his past research projects include work on the architect Albert Frey, the city of Palm Desert, and the development Smoke Tree Ranch. His current project is a forthcoming publication on the architect Rudolph Schindler. He is interested in the ways in which architecture and urbanism are used to reimagine the desert “wasteland” into something popular, desirable, and sellable -- with repercussions for how we view and utilize landscapes.
