Harry Kendall - A Life of Mowglis inspired "William Tell" Moments



Harry Kendall came to Mowglis in 1965 and continued on every other year through Den and then a year on the staff. In 1969 Harry and Nat Hemenway set off on a day off intending to hitchhike to Woodstock but the best laid plans went awry and they landed at Hampton Beach after being told that getting to Yasger's farm was an impossibility. Because there were 3 boys in the family each was expected to work odd jobs to play a part in the expense of attending Mowglis and they did so without reservation.


Harry attributes the environmental ethos of Mowglis as the inspiration for his outlook on life and his professional priorities. Harry's company BSKS Architects would go on to develop the first civic building to earn the coveted Platinum LEEDS certification in New York City. The Queens Botanical Garden Visitor Center was NYC’s first civic building to earn a LEED Platinum certification.
