Abstract

I had been fortunate to know Professor Peter Hall as a student at Berkeley. This essay is about my memory of Peter as a scholar, teacher, and mentor. I wish to highlight Peter's versatility in his scholarship, by focusing on his work creativity and the city in his book, Cities in Civilization. To me, it demonstrates his phenomenal range of interests and his open curiosity to all things urban. Peter continues to be the most inspiring scholar I have met.
