The Color of Courage
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
After the war, Kulski studied architecture in England and the U.S., receiving both his B.Arch. and M.Arch. from Yale University, and a Ph.D. in Urban Planning from the Warsaw Institute of Technology. He was a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects (FAIA) (an honor bestowed upon less than two percent of American architects) and a member of the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP).
After semi-retirement from a distinguished architectural career, Kulski led the urban and regional planning programs at Notre Dame University and at George Washington University, and later established the first city planning program at Howard University. For twenty years he served as a consultant to the World Bank, traveling around the world designing buildings in twenty-nine developing countries.
He is the author of several books, and has published more than a hundred articles in professional journals. Kulski also produced an award-winning documentary about World War II titled Legacy of the White Eagle. He was a frequent speaker to audiences ranging in age from junior high school to adult.
A long-time member of the Board of Trustees of the Kosciuszko Foundation, Kulski was the recipient of numerous decorations awarded by the Polish government, including the highly prestigious Cross of Valor, the Commander's Cross with Star of the Order of Merit, Silver Cross of Merit with Swords, the Home Army Cross, the Polish Army Medal (four times), and the Cross of the Warsaw Uprising.
Kulski made his home in Washington, D.C.
