Obituary


Moving files recently I uncovered this 1994 obituary from the Herald sitting in my files -- Claude sharing a page with Henry Mancini, which may have amused him ...


NB: As far as I know, although there is a thesis by Claude in the Auckland School of Architecture library that used to be available (back when there was an Auckland School of Architecture library) there were no books by Claude ever published -- although I'd love to be corrected on this. There were however many articles on him and his work, one of which was called 'Claude Megson -- Utopian Idealist.' It was by architect writer and force of nature Tony Watkins, and it appeared in the Nov/Dec 1988 issue of NZ Architect.
