In 1998, Karen Phillips, FASLA, was elected as an ASLA Fellow, making her the first African American female Fellow. Fellowship is among the highest honors ASLA bestows on members in recognition of their service to the profession and society. Phillips's career has focused on improving the lives of residents in economically distressed communities. Most notably, she played a key role in the transformation of the Harlem neighborhood in New York City. Learn more about Phillips and her many contributions at ASLA.org.
