Robert Royston

After serving in the navy, Royston joined Garrett Eckbo and Edward Williams in establishing the firm of Eckbo, Royston and Williams. This partnership foreshadowed the development of larger planning and design firms in the 1960s, including the one Royston joined in 1958-Royston, Hanamoto, Alley and Abey (RHAA).

Royston, who taught at Berkeley from 1947 to 1951 and at Stanford in the 1950s, was a mentor to many landscape designers, including Eldon Beck, Francis Dean, and Robert Reich"--
