Dear All,
I've been contacted by a relative of the woman listed below - they are looking for anything that may have been recorded about this landscape designer. If any of you can suggest a place that might have information about this woman's work, please let me know. This is the information I received:
"Her maiden name was Elizabeth (Betty) Clark and she graduated from
the Cambridge School of Landscape Design (now part of Harvard) in the
early 20's. She first worked for a landscape design firm by the name
of Frost in Cambridge- or Boston. She continued to practice after she
married (1928) and became Elizabeth Clark Gunther. She worked some
with my grandfather- John Gunther- he was an architect with the Bemis
firm in Cambridge. In about 1938 they moved to Hancock, NH and she
continued to do contract work in the Monadnock Region- both
commercial and private homes- some of it with my grandfather. She
even did gardens in Craftsbury Commons, Vt, in the late 40's. I can
remember her doing a few residential gardens- her favorite- into the
early 1960's in southern NH."
with,
C.L.
