This video features Cornell-educated architect and University Trustee Jill Lerner '75, B Arch '76, a Principal at the architectural firm, Kohn Pedersen Fox Architects (KPF).
Created in honor of her 30th Reunion in June 2005, the video is illustrated with vintage photos of Jill's days on the hill, her friends in college, and her dance performances. Jill is heard describing why she selected Cornell, telling about her years as an architecture student as well as a serious dance student and performer, and explaining her work at KPF.
Her story is interspersed with brief commentary from Cornell classmates and friends, her family, and from founding KPF Principals, Gene Kohn and Bill Pedersen. Additionally, Jill describes why her Alma Mater has come to play such a significant role in her life in recent years and her election to the Cornell Board of Trustees for a four year term starting in July 2005.
Produced by Phil ('62, B.Arch. '64) and Maddy ('65) Handler, Fly on the Wall Productions.
