Charles Waldheim is Associate Dean and Director of the Landscape Architecture program of the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design at the University of Toronto where his research focuses on contemporary urbanism and its relation to landscape. He coined the term ‘landscape urbanism’ to describe emerging design practices in the context of North American urbanism and has written extensively on the positions, practices, and precedents of the topic. He is the editor of the definitive account of this disciplinary realignment: The Landscape Urbanism Reader (Princeton Architectural Press, 2006).
