Her nomination by Stephen Smith, FAIA, for the Bronze Medal outlines her impact on the Utah Architectural Committee: “Libby has influenced the direction of the profession with her superb ability to convey her enthusiasm and passion for architecture to other architects, clients and students. She is an inspiration. “She has consistently looked to the future while respecting the past primarily through her project experience. She is currently working on revitalizing several spaces in historical buildings, such as the Merrill Engineering Building and John R. Park Building at the University of Utah and South High School in Salt Lake City. “She has been widely recognized for the quality of her work by the design and architecture community as evidenced by her election to AIA offices and commendations by her teaching peers. She has served on several committees at the University of Utah and civic boards including the Salt Lake Art and Design Board and Spy Hop. Libby is a co-founder of Women in Architecture Salt Lake City and was recently recognized as a Woman to Watch in 2024 by Utah Business.” Additionally, the colleagues who wrote in her support confirmed how Libby meets and exceeds all the criteria for the Bronze Medal Award of the AIA Utah, noting specifically how committed she is to the profession, both by teaching and as practitioner. As Anne Mooney, FAIA, wrote, “Libby’s background is evidence of her ability to transcend diverse areas of expertise — academic, professional and service — and provides a wonderful example of an architect who has made meaningful connections between these areas in her work.” AIA UTAH 2024 BRONZE MEDAL AWARD RECIPIENT LIBBY HASLAM, AIA 25
