Beatrix Farrand (1872 – 1959) was America’s first female landscape landscape architect. Her pioneering career included commissions to design over 100 gardens for private residences, country estates, public parks, botanic gardens, college campuses, and the White House. They include the famous Dumbarton Oaks in Washington, D.C., the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Garden on Mount Desert, Maine, the restored Farm House Garden in Bar Harbor, the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden at the New York Botanical Garden, and significant portions of the campuses of Princeton and Yale.
