Library Journal Review

In this look back at his long career, architect Hardy discusses 20 projects including museums, a courthouse, and theaters such as the Claire Tow Theater at Lincoln Center and the restoration of Radio City Music Hall. However, the "theater" of the title does not refer to theater buildings; rather, it alludes to the architect's view that his buildings, similar to theater, set the stage for the inhabitants. Furthermore, just as context affects a play on the stage, the author notes, context is similarly important in architecture. Hardy's writing focuses on the context for each building-the needs of the residents or visitors, the site, the intended purpose, the history of the neighborhood or the building to be restored, and any obstacles encountered-in order to underscore how it affected the design. Additional comments on Hardy's work from theater and museum directors, federal judges, and other clients accompany each project. VERDICT Although missing some of the trappings of the architectural monograph (most notably building plans), this readable account of the architect's work achieves his aim of telling the larger story of the buildings.-Amy Trendler, Ball State Univ.
