She appeared in the 2011 documentary Urbanized, the 2012 PBS series “Designing Healthy Communities” and was recently interviewed on NPR’s Morning Edition, in anticipation of the National Bike Summit, and for AIA Atlanta’s Shoptalk series. She continues to build her database of suburban retrofits, lecture widely, and is working on a follow-up book on successful strategies for retrofitting suburbs to meet 21st century challenges.

Ellen’s published over 60 additional papers linking contemporary architectural theory and practice. “Irrational Exuberance: Rem Koolhaas in the Nineties” in the 2013 book Architecture and Capitalism was named one of the ten most popular essays of 2013 by The Design Observer Group.

In 2015 she was honored to be inducted in the inaugural classes of both the Brooks Byers Institute of Sustainable Systems Fellows at Georgia Tech and the CNU Fellows.
