Ati Gropius Johansen

Beate "Ati" Gropius Johansen (1926 — September 7, 2014) was a German-born graphic designer, artist, teacher, and illustrator.

[1][2] She emigrated to the United States with her adoptive parents in 1937,[3] when Walter Gropius came to teach at Harvard University's Graduate School of Design.

Ati attended primary and secondary school at nearby Concord Academy.

She later married architect John M. Johansen, who would become the last surviving member of the Harvard Five, an architectural group heavily influenced by Walter Gropius.

She taught workshops based on Albers's Bauhaus design courses at various institutions including the Museum of Modern Art in New York City[6] and the Walter Gropius School in Erfurt.
