Career

Born to Polly and Thomas Sr. in Oxford, Hines received his Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts from the University of Mississippi in 1958, and was a member of Omicron Delta Kappa. He then earned his Doctor of Philosophy in History from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1971. His dissertation focused on the architect Daniel Burnham, and was written under the supervision of William L. O'Neill. ^[2] Since graduating, Hines has taught at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he is now Professor Emeritus of History, and has a joint appointment for Architecture and Urban Design, as well.

In 1976, Hines won the John H. Dunning Prize from the American Historical Association for his book on Burnham titled Burnham of Chicago: Architect and Planner. In addition to Burnham, Hines has also written extensively on the architects Irving Gill, Richard Neutra, and Frank Lloyd Wright.

In 1987, Hines was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. Seven years later, he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. ^[3]

The archive of Hines is currently held by the Getty Research Institute. ^[4]
