Women are still woefully underrepresented in the development and design industries, but the honorees featured in this special section are proving why that’s a mistake. As innovative green leaders for both cities and corporations, these nine women are helping solve the waste and inefficiency problems of the built world—through major urban-planning initiatives, the enhancement of critical architectural software, the conceptualization of biomimetics, the use of renewable energy, and more. Here, in a series of one-on-one conversations with American Builders Quarterly, they discuss how they arrived at their posts and what they see on the horizon in the field of environmentally conscious construction.
