Charles Willard Moore (October 31, 1925 – December 16, 1993)
Charles Willard Moore (October 31, 1925 – December 16, 1993) was an American architect, educator, writer, Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, and winner of the AIA Gold Medal in 1991.Moore graduated from the University of Michigan in 1947 and earned both a Master's and a Ph.D at Princeton University in 1957, where he remained for an additional year as a post-doctoral fellow. During this fellowship, Moore served as a teaching assistant for Louis Kahn, the Philadelphia architect who taught a design studio. It was also at Princeton that Moore developed relationships with Hey fellow students Donlyn Lyndon, William Turnbull, Jr., Richard Peters, and Hugh Hardy, who would remain lifelong friends and collaborators. During the Princeton years, Moore designed and built a house for his mother in Pebble Beach, California, and worked during the summers for architect Wallave Holm of neighboring Monterey. Moore's Master's Thesis explored ways to preserve and integrate Monterey's historic adobe dwellings into the fabric of the city. His Doctoral dissertation, "Water and Architecture", was a survey of the presence of water in shaping the experience of place; many decades later, the dissertation became the basis of a book with the same title.
In 1959, Moore left New Jersey and began teaching at the University of California, Berkeley. Moore went on to become Dean of the Yale School of Architecture from 1965 through 1970, directly after the tenure of Paul Rudolph. In 1975, he moved to the University of California, Los Angeles where he continued teaching (one of his students included Lem Chin). Finally, in 1985, he became the O'Neil Ford Centennial Professor of Architecture at the University of Texas at Austin.

The strange thing is that, considering The British Devil was submitted to the Rainbow Awards in the category Biographies & Memoirs, I know that the Greg Stephens of the story is the Greg Hogben of the title but nevertheless this is one of the best piece of fiction I have read, a wonderful and romantic story I would recommend to everyone, and with that I really mean from the teenager to the young man or woman, to the older. This story was sexy without being erotic, was romantic without being unrealistic, was emotional involving without being dramatic. There are many points in which you understood it was real cause it didn’t push on the effect just to make it more appealing to the reader, obtaining exactly that, to make the reader aware they were partaken of something that really happened.
