I'd be interested to find out, how a person can begin an office in 1980, win a competition two years later and have it not built, then not actually build something until a decade after that an still survive. I realize that somewhere in there was teaching, but its just hard for me to grasp a career like that. Anyway, just a rant.

She was writing, painting, teaching.....plus it doesn't hurt when you have family money to survive.......
from interview on bloomberg:
Were there no other women deserving of the award? ``I'm sure there were,'' she replies. ``It's not because of lack of talent: When I teach, the best students are women.''
what is this about?
I love the term "family money" it makes me think of Ahmed Chalabi...
