BWAF Podcast Details Legacy of Architect/Designer Anna Wagner Keichline
Not every architect has the opportunity to build skyscrapers. In Pennsylvania, architect and industrial designer Anna Wagner Keichline used her talents to improve the lives of her neighbors by designing their houses and gathering places. She adopted a gently accommodating architectural style in the shadow of her hometown, Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, and its high Victorian lacery, and she designed sturdy churches, theaters, homes, schools and recreation facilities in the town that still stand well and firmly in their context.
The Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation presents the extraordinary story of Keichline (1889-1943) in a new episode of its New Angle: Voice podcast, titled Anna Wagner Keichline: The Legacy of Invention.
