London’s Architectural Association, one of the world’s most prestigious schools of architecture, announced last week a shortlist of five candidates to serve as the school’s next director. The selected candidate will replace former director Eva Franch i Gilabert, who was fired in 2020 after her strategic plan suffered a staff and student vote of no confidence.
The shortlist includes two American women: Jill Stoner, the former director of Carleton University’s Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism in Ottawa, and Ingrid Schroder, currently head of design teaching at the University of Cambridge. (Although Schroder studied for her undergraduate degree in the U.K. and has lived there since 1990, she was born and raised in Washington, D.C.)
