Lawrence Kreisman has been the program director of Historic Seattle since 1997 - a membership organization that for 32 years has preserved and restored buildings and encouraged people to get involved in preservation through its advocacy efforts. He is known for bringing public attention to the Northwest's architectural heritage and its preservation through courses, tours, exhibits, lectures, articles and books, and program development. He holds master's degrees in architecture from the University of Washington and in English literature from the University of Chicago. His lectures and tours on late nineteenth and early twentieth century architecture are sought after throughout the Northwest and we're excited to have him with us this month.
