Pietro Belluschi
Pietro Belluschi (August 18, 1899 – February 14, 1994) was an Italian-born American architect, a leader of the Modern Movement in architecture, and was responsible for the design of over 1,000 buildings.〔Belluschi, Pietro. (2007). In ''Encyclopædia Britannica''. Retrieved September 22, 2007, from: (Encyclopædia Britannica Online )〕
Born in Italy, Belluschi's architectural career began as a draftsman in a Portland, Oregon firm. He achieved a national reputation within about 20 years, largely for his 1947 aluminum-clad Equitable Building. In 1951 he was named the dean of the MIT School of Architecture and Planning, where he served until 1965, also working as collaborator and design consultant for many high-profile commissions, most famously the 1963 Pan Am Building. He won the 1972 AIA Gold Medal.
==Early life==
Pietro Belluschi was born in Ancona, Italy in 1899.〔Gragg, Randy. "Belluschi revered as creative, 'spiritual' architect". ''The Oregonian'', February 15, 1994.〕 He grew up in Italy and served in the Italian armed forces during World War I when Italy was allied with Great Britain, France, and later the United States.〔 Serving in the army he fought against the Austrians at the battles of Caporetto and Vittorio Veneto.〔 After the war, Belluschi studied at the University of Rome, earning a degree in civil engineering in 1922.〔
He moved to the United States in 1923, despite speaking no English, and finished his education—as an exchange student on a scholarship—at Cornell University with a second degree in civil engineering.〔〔 Instead of returning to Italy, he worked briefly as a mining engineer in Idaho earning $5 per day, but he then joined the architectural office of A. E. Doyle in Portland,〔 living in Goose Hollow. He remained in the U.S., as friends in Italy had cautioned him to not return home because of the rise to power of Benito Mussolini and the Fascist government.〔
