Catherine Seavitt Nordenson is an associate professor of landscape architecture at the City College of New York. A registered architect and landscape architect, she is a graduate of the Cooper Union and Princeton University, a fellow of the American Academy in Rome, and a recipient of a Fulbright Fellowship for research in Brazil. Her work explores adaptation to climate change in urban environments and the novel transformation of landscape restoration practices. She also examines the intersection of political power, environmental activism, and public health, particularly as seen through the design of public space and policy. Several of her books are co-authored with Guy Nordenson, including Structures of Coastal Resilience (Island Press, 2018); Four Corridors: Design Initiative for RPA’s Fourth Regional Plan (Hatje Cantz, 2019); and On the Water: Palisade Bay (Hatje Cantz, 2010).
