Paul Groth (1949-) is Professor Emeritus of Architecture and Geography at the University of California, Berkeley. Groth's
overarching research interest is in cultural landscape studies--that is, the history, form, and meaning of ordinary built
environments, particularly in the United States, and the ways in which social groups have used space (as buildings, rooms,
street grids, fields, or yards) to articulate social relations and to derive cultural meaning.
