\nBio:\n

Michael Bennett&rsquo\;s 30-plus-year architecture career embraces contradictions. He believes in tradition and innovation\, in place-based design inspired by global architecture precedents\, in projects that are both creative and purpose-driven. Bennett&rsquo\;s career was informed equally by small-town Texas and world capitals. After earning a degree in Music Theory and Composition from Texas Christian University in 1978 and a Master&rsquo\;s of Architecture from the University of Texas at Arlington in 1983\, he practiced architecture in Dallas for eight years. He then worked for eight years in Germany\, two in Amsterdam\, and two in New York City. He returned to Texas in 2003 and now serves as Principal and CEO of Bennett Benner Partners.
