About Hilary Ballon

NYU Abu Dhabi’s Teaching and Learning Center is named, by request of the faculty, for the University’s late Deputy Vice Chancellor. Hilary Ballon, a founding member of the team that began planning NYUAD in September 2007. She was involved in all aspects of the University’s development, with particular responsibility for the design of a new, globally oriented curriculum and the three-million square-foot campus on Saadiyat Island that opened in 2014. Ballon’s scholarship focused on cities and the intersection of architecture, politics, and social life, with a recent focus on New York City. In 2012 she received the American Academy of Arts and Letters Award in Architecture for her publications and curatorial work. In addition to her administrative duties, Ballon taught courses on urbanism and architecture at the Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, where she was a University Professor.
