Biographical / Historical

Anne Baker (1890-1943) worked in Beatrix Farrand's landscape gardening office from 1924 to 1938. Although her title was "assistant to Mrs. Farrand," Baker served as the chief designer in the practice, and she handed out assignments to Farrand's other employees, including Ruth Havey and Margaret H. Bailie. An accomplished landscape gardener and draftswoman in her own right, Baker also ran a small practice of her own, with permission, from Farrand's address.
