Dan Kiley was one of the most influential landscape architects of the modern period. His work with Saarinen, Eckbo, Kahn, Bunshaft, Roche and others, transformed the public perception of landscape in post war America. His knowledge of plants together with his ability to conceive abstractly of the space made by them was unique at the time. I had the privilege of interviewing him several times for a documentary. Check out this link for a new exhibition.
Links to my videos are below. I had to split it up to post it.
