Docomomo US announces 16 recipients of the 2024 Modernism in America Awards. Among the winners, the Inventory/Survey Citation of Merit was presented to The Edith Farnsworth House book (The Monacelli Press), authored by SAH member Michelangelo Sabatino, with contributions by current and former members Scott Mehaffey, Dietrich Neumann, Ron Henderson, and Hilary Lewis.

Docomomo writes of their work: "Although much scholarship exists on the iconic house in Chicago’s suburbs by Mies van der Rohe, there was a gap in knowledge and misconceptions surrounding its patron and client, Dr. Edith Farnsworth. This publication, designed by Chris Grimley, brings to light her pivotal role, a perspective often overshadowed in other Mies-centric narratives about this modern country house."

Sabatino has been a member of SAH since 1999, and has served on Board of Directors and various SAH publication award juries.

The Modernism in America Awards celebrate the documentation, preservation and reuse of Modern buildings, structures and landscapes built in the United States or on U.S. territory and recognize building owners, design teams, individuals, and preservation organizations that have made significant efforts to retain, restore, and advocate for the aesthetic and cultural value of such places.
