Dean, FASLA (1922–2003)—with an exhibit featuring original landscape drawings, photographs and related materials. Dean, who graduated from UC Berkeley with a bachelor of science degree in landscape architecture in 1948, was a leading figure in postwar landscape architecture. As co-founder of the internationally acclaimed firm Eckbo, Dean, Austin and Williams (and its predecessor firms), he demonstrated an ability to plan and execute projects in a wide range of scales, including private residences, college and university campuses, regional parks, and urban open spaces that covered hundreds of square miles. Dean joined the faculty of the landscape architecture department at Cal Poly Pomona in 1976, and his professional stature added significantly to the reputation of the department. Through his teaching and public service, he was a strong advocate for an approach to landscape architecture that drew on an analytic and creative design process to meet the needs of people while maintaining the health and quality of the environment. While Dean was a principal of EDAW and its earlier iterations, the firm established offices in Washington state and Hawaii. Dean opened an office for EDW in Seale (1958–61), and during that period designed the University of Washington Faculty Club (1960–67); the property was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.
