40 Individuals Represent 25 ASLA Chapters
by Staff

The ASLA has announced this year's Council of Fellows, which includes 40 individuals who have shown exceptional leadership, knowledge, and service over their careers.

The ASLA recently released the names of 40 Landscape Architects who have been chosen to be part of the 2024 Council of Fellows. This year's group boasts 23 women and 17 men who represent 10 states, Washington, D.C., and Canada. California is home to the most Fellows with a total of 5, followed by a four-way tie between Texas, Massachusetts, New York, and Washington, D.C. with 3 Fellows each. This year's Council of Fellows will be officially elevated at a special ceremony during the ASLA's 2024 Conference on Landscape Architecture that will take place in Washington, D.C. from October 6-9.
The Council of Fellows is one of the highest honors an ASLA member can receive, as this distinction is reserved only for those who have shown exceptional leadership, knowledge, and service across their career. According to the ASLA Council of Fellows webpage, 1,428 Fellows have been elected since 1899, more than 700 of whom are still active or hold emeritus status. Those nominated to the Council must be full ASLA members in good standing for a minimum of 10 years who are recommended by the Executive Committees of either their local chapter, the ASLA, or the Council of Fellows.
