The Dallas Architecture Forum presents Edward M. Baum, FAIA on November 14, 2024. Baum has achieved distinction in parallel professional and academic careers. Baum’s work has received awards from Progressive Architecture, American Architecture, and Residential Architect, as well as state and local design awards. Two significant built projects include the Dallas Police Memorial and Prototype Infill Housing in Dallas. Baum taught at the Harvard GSD for a decade, followed by nine years at Washington University in Saint Louis. Baum was at UTA’s School of Architecture until 2013, where he served as Dean from 1987 until 1999, helping to bring its architecture program to national recognition in design. In 1998 Baum co-founded The Dallas Architecture Forum. He brought The Forum’s Lecture Series to national prominence. Largely because of Baum’s illustrious vision, the Forum received the national AIA’s Collaborative Achievement Award.
