Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects has announced the passing of its founding principal Marsha Ann Maytum at the age of 69 following her battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). She is being remembered as a champion of environmental concerns and the holistic approach to architectural design. Her colleagues will also remember a quiet leader whose steadfast effort brought the firm national attention on the way to several major awards, including the 2017 AIA Firm Award and multiple AIA COTE Top Tenhonors. “Marsha’s vision, mentorship, and generative force to get things done lifted many of us, helping us to see and realize the positive change that is possible. She helped us understand what we — and architects together — can do to change the world and empower the next generation,” HKS Principal Julie Hiromoto wrote in a statement Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects published Tuesday.
