Frederick Law Olmsted, journalist, abolitionist, explorer, did not seriously turn to landscape architecture, the career that would make him immortal, until he was 44. Olmsted’s large public parks like New York’s Central Park, and the Capitol Grounds in Washington still inspire visitors today, but there are many small public parks and private estates designed by Olmsted that suffer from neglect. This slide show by local historian Ed Hands will present a brief biography of Olmsted and then take a detailed look at the design and current state of three Olmsted landscapes in nearby Easton: The Rockery, Oakes Ames Memorial Hall, and Sheep Pasture.
Ed Hands was born in Braintree and moved to Easton when he was 12. He graduated from OA in 1966, went to Bridgewater State, and got his Masters in Latin American History at UMASS Amherst. He taught at Randolph High School from 1973 until 1994, did five years at Holbrook High before becoming the Social Studies Department Head at OA. While doing this, he became a member of the Easton Historical Society and the Easton Historical Commission. He is currently working on a project on the Underground Railroad for Raising Multicultural Kids.
No registration necessary.
