Expanding the biography of Peter Trowbridge

I have expanded the biography of Peter Trowbridge based on my knowledge as his colleague and as a former Chair, as well as information available on various websites. The department website is the most stable reference available, along with the websites for his two firms. As a historian, I have been involved with the preparation of various unpublished histories of the department and understand Trowbridge's long time contributions. These are mentioned at https://cals.cornell.edu/landscape-architecture/about/history-department

I am open to advice on the best ways to provide citations, as there are broken links in the original biography. Topiaria (talk) 17:54, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
