Benjamin C. Marsh

Benjamin C. Marsh (1878-1952) was a social worker, journalist, and Georgist activist who helped pioneer the city planning movement in the United States.〔Caves, Roger W. Encyclopedia of the City. Abingdon, Oxon, OX: Routledge, 2005.〕〔Marsh, Benjamin Clarke. Lobbyist for the People; a Record of Fifty Years. Washington: Public Affairs, 1953.〕
==Social Reformer==

Born in Bulgaria to American missionary parents, Marsh brought evangelic zeal to the causes he espoused. After working with charities in Pennsylvania, he went to New York and became involved in poverty issues. Overcrowding in places like the Lower East Side led the National Consumers League and other groups to establish the Committee on Congestion of Population in 1907; Marsh was hired as the committee's first executive secretary. He toured Europe to learn how housing was being regulated there, organized anti-congestion exhibits and made numerous speeches on the subject. In 1909, he published the first American book dedicated exclusively to city planning, ''An Introduction to City Planning: Democracy's Challenge and the American City.'' The book lauded Frankfurt, Germany for its approach to planning and advocated for zoning, land taxes and municipal control of undeveloped land. Marsh believed that such regulations would prevent the overbuilding he associated with the development of slums.
