This award recognizes women who have made a significant contribution to design excellence and the advancement of women in the fields of architecture and design. Theodate Pope Riddle was one of the first women architects to become licensed in Connecticut and New York and was passionate about constructing environments that encouraged an awareness of nature, learning, a sense of home and legacy. This award given by the museum that she founded in 1947, honors her commitment to adhering to her own ethos in a male dominated field.
