American writer and landscape architect
Elizabeth Lawrence (May 5, 1904 – June 11, 1985), was an American horticulture writer and landscape architect. In 1932, she became the first woman to graduate with a degree in Landscape Architecture from (present-day) North Carolina State University. She is best known for her columns and books on Southern gardening. Lawrence wrote for "House &amp; Garden", "The American Home", and "Southern Home and Garden", and more than 700 columns for "The Charlotte Observer".
Her home in Charlotte, North Carolina, the Elizabeth Lawrence House and Garden is recognized by the National Register of Historic Places and is part of the Wing Haven Gardens and Bird Sanctuary.
