Martha Schwartz is a landscape architect and tenured Professor in Practice of Landscape Architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. Her practice focuses primarily on cities and the urban landscape and the work spans from site-specific art installations to working with cities at strategic planning levels. Schwartz is an advocate for how cities can help to reduce climate change and support a more sustainable approach to diminishing resources. She continues her devotion to the built environment through pushing new boundaries and expressions as a designer. She understands design as a method through which to create social buy-in and the creation of value for public spaces.
