Organizational history
Perry, Shaw & Hepburn was formed in 1923 as a merger between two practices: the independent practice of William G. Perry (1883–1975) and the firm of Shaw & Hepburn, the partnership of T. Mott Shaw (1878–1965) and Andrew H. Hepburn (1880–1967).[1] Despite being the youngest of the three, Perry's name was placed first. Over the next several years they gained note as designers of institutional buildings in the Colonial Revival style, insluding the new campus of Roxbury Latin School, completed in 1927, and Longfellow Hall of Harvard University, completed in 1929. In 1927 they were chosen architects for the restoration and reconstruction of Colonial Williamsburg, and were responsible for the restoration and reconstruction of hundreds of buildings, including the Capitol and Governor's Palace. Perry was chief architect on the project until 1953.[2]
Expanding from an office of five in 1923, in the 1930s they added several new associates, including Christopher M. Kehoe (1896–1952) in 1930[3] and Robert C. Dean (1903–1997) in 1939.[4] In 1949 they were admitted to partnership in the expanded firm of Perry, Shaw & Hepburn, Kehoe & Dean. Kehoe died suddently in 1952, and in 1953 the firm became Perry, Shaw, Hepburn & Dean.[3][5] Both Shaw and Hepburn retired in 1962, and in 1965 the firm was renamed Perry, Dean, Hepburn & Stewart to reflect the addition of Andrew Hepburn, son of Andrew H. Hepburn, and Clifford D. Stewart. In 1968 it was renamed Perry, Dean & Stewart after Hepburn's departure.[5]
Perry retired from practice in 1974, at the age of 90, and Stewart left shortly after.[6] Dean then incorporated the firm as Perry Dean Partners, with himself as president. New partners included Charles F. Rogers II and Dean's son, Andrew J. Dean. In 1977 the firm was merged with Stahl Associates, a firm founded in 1961 by Frederick A. Stahl. The merged office was known as Perry, Dean, Stahl & Rogers with Dean as chair and Stahl as president.[7] In 1982 Stahl left to reestablish his own firm, and Dean and his partners continued as Perry Dean Rogers Architects, still the present (2023) name.
Later presidents of the firm have included Steven M. Foote, Martha A. Pilgreen
