It is a great honor for me to introduce today’s guest lecturer, Dr C. Henry Taylor, a colleague who is so well-known to all of us for his many accomplishments and contributions to the field of architecture and planning that it hardly seems necessary to recount them here. Nevertheless, as customary, I will summarize his long experience as a prelude to his address. Dr Taylor received his BA degree in urban history at Yale University in 1955. Five years later, he was awarded a master degree in architecture and a PhD in urban design from Cornell University. Upon graduating, he accepted a teaching position in the Department of Architecture and Fine Arts at Illinois University where he was promoted to chairman of the department in 1969. Last year Dr Taylor resigned from the University in order to accept a research position with the Department of Housing and Urban Development in Washington as director of planning. In addition to teaching and research, Dr Taylor has devoted much time to designing, writing, and lecturing. Some of his most famous buildings are right here in the Chicago area, and include the Twin Towers office building and the Saint Laurence Seaway Recreation Center. His many articles on functional architecture and urban planning have appeared in scores of journals over the past twenty years, and a half dozen textbooks are to his credit, including one of the books that we use for this seminar, Trends in Urban Design. Today Dr Taylor will speak to us about federal regulations for urban development, and frankly, I know of no one more qualified to address the subject. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Dr C. Henry Taylor, scholar, designer, and author.

How does the speaker feel about Dr Taylor().

A. He respects him.
B. He does not know him.
C. He does not want to introduce him.
