Steele, Fletcher (1885–1971)

US landscape architect. In the 1920s and 1930s he introduced French modernism to American landscape design, replacing beaux arts formalism with more experimental designs. From his Boston office (1920–70) he completed some 600 commissions.

He was born in Rochester, New York. His commissions include Naumkeag in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, where he created sweeping vistas with curving walls and sculpted mounds of earth.
