Ines Zalduendo

Inés is currently the Special Collections Archivist at the Frances Loeb Library of the Harvard Graduate School of Design, where she is part of the Collections Team and enjoys collection development, contributing to exhibitions, and teaching with special collections the most. She has presented papers on architecture and archives at conferences at the Society of Architectural Historians and the Society of American Archivists, as well as at the Politecnico di Milano, Politecnico di Torino, and RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects). 

She is an architect and archivist both by education and training. After 15 years in architectural practice, both in Argentina and in the United States, she turned to architectural archives when invited by the GSD to curate an exhibition on the work of Argentine architect Jorge Ferrari Hardoy, who had worked with Le Corbusier in the development of the Plan de Buenos Aires, and whose archive had been donated to the Frances Loeb Library. Twelve of her twenty years in Special Collections were dedicated exclusively to processing collections and the curation of exhibitions.  

Inés has a Diploma de Arquitecta from Universidad de Buenos Aires, a Master in Architecture from Harvard Graduate School of Design, and a Master in Library and Information Science with a concentration in Archives Administration from Simmons College.
