Featuring in-depth interviews with Robert A.M. Stern, founding partner of RAMSA, and partners Gary Brewer and Melissa DelVecchio, this inspiring documentary explores the contributions that Stern has made to architecture and education. Stern, a two-time Arthur Ross Award winner for architecture and education, has always been a wonderful supporter of the ICAA, and a hero to us all, so it is fitting that he would be the first subject featured in this series. I look forward to seeing the film again at next week's sold-out event, which will be followed by a panel discussion with Stern, Brewer, and DelVecchio, moderated by Mitch Owens of Architectural Digest, all of whom who have been great supporters of this project.
