He also wrote prolifically and persuasively Kenneth Helphand, who puts a cultural and geographi- about his own work. Ironically, his literary output may cal frame around his work in Israel; Reuben Rainey, who have occluded critical perspectives on his many and offers a critical tour of the FDR Memorial; and Randy remarkable accomplishments as a designer. Between Hester, who looks back at some of Halprin’s values and his autobiography, his notebooks and sketchbooks, methods. Emerging critical perspectives are offered by the first-person accounts of his creative process in Alison Bick Hirsch, who evaluates the Take Part pro- the publications Taking Part and The RSVP Cycles, and cess as it played out in Cleveland; Kate John-Alder, who monographs on projects such as Sea Ranch in Califor- explores Halprin’s notions of ecological design using Sea nia and the FDR Memorial in Washington DC, Halprin Ranch as a case study; Ann Komara, who offers a cri- seemed to command the discourse around his work.
