"Theresa 'Terry' Brown was surprised when the National Trust for Historic Preservation acknowledged her pioneering preservation work in LeDroit Park in Northwest Washington with one of its highest awards...In her many roles as educator, mentor, agitator and leader, she is a model for the essential role preservation can play in everyone's lives and has proven preservation's impact on neighborhood revitalization."
