Anne Vernez Moudonis Professor of Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Design and Planning; Adjunct Professor of Epidemiology and Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Washington, Seattle, where she also directs the Urban Form Lab (UFL). Dr. Moudon holds a B.Arch. (Honors) from the University of California, Berkeley, and a Doctor ès Science from the École Polytechnique Fédérale of Lausanne, Switzerland. Dr. Moudon was past-President of the International Seminar on Urban Morphology (ISUF), a Faculty Associate at the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, in Cambridge, MA; and a Fellow of the Urban Land Institute in Washington, D.C. She is a National Advisor to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation program on Active Living Policy and Environmental Studies.
The UFL specializes in the spatial analysis of the built environment using micro-scale data in Geographic Information Systems. This urban form research addresses such topics as land monitoring, neighborhood and street design, non-motorized transportation, physical activity, and access to food environments. The work has been supported by the U.S. and Washington State Departments of Transportation, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and local agencies.
Dr. Moudon’s has published many articles in urban design, transportation, and public health journals. Her books include Built for Change: Neighborhood Architecture in San Francisco (MIT Press 1986), Public Streets for Public Use (Columbia University Press 1991), and Monitoring Land Supply with Geographic Information Systems (with M. Hubner, John Wiley & Sons, 2000). She also published several monographs, such as Master-Planned Communities: Shaping Exurbs in the 1990s (with B. Wiseman and K.J. Kim, distributed by the APA Bookstore, 1992) and Urban Design: Reshaping Our Cities (with W. Attoe, University of Washington, College of Architecture and Urban Planning, 1995).
