From the late 1930s to the early 1950s, the Harvard Graduate School of Design played a crucial role in shaping a new modern architecture and the modern city. This work argues that its founder Gropius did not effect these changes alone and, further, that the GSD was not merely an offshoot of the Bauhaus.
