Jeff Speck is a city planner and author who advocates internationally for more walkable cities. As Director of Design at the National Endowment for the Arts from 2003 through 2007, he presided over the Mayors' Institute on City Design and created the Governors' Institute on Community Design. Prior to his federal appointment, Mr. Speck spent ten years as Director of Town Planning at DPZ & Co., the principal firm behind the New Urbanism movement. Since 2007, he has led Speck & Associates — now Speck Dempsey —an award-winning urban planning firm serving public and private clients around the world.
With Andres Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, Mr. Speck is the co-author of "Suburban Nation," which the Wall Street Journal calls "the urbanist's bible.” His 2012 book "Walkable City" was the best selling city planning title of the past decade and has been translated into eight languages.

Jeff Speck Reviews

Jeff is an incredibly dynamic, thoughtful, and humorous speaker. He invested a lot of time in understanding the local context and tailoring his presentation to Santa Fe’s needs. The audience loved his talk, and many said it was the best session of our livability series.

The event was a success! Jeff was really outstanding, and such a good sport with letting me drag him around from VIP to VIP at the reception before his talk and breakfast after. Preserve the 'Burg really got a lot of mileage out of bringing him here - he was brilliant. My experience was stellar from beginning to end. Thank you!!
