September 3, 2015 /3BL Media/ - Harriet Langford, Foundation Trustee and daughter of the late Ray C. Anderson, has been appointed to serve on the Board of Directors for the Biophilic Institute.

The Biophilic Institute is a nonprofit organization that finds its roots in the word “biophilia,” originally coined by psychologist and philosopher Erich Fromm, describing the psychological orientation of humans to be attracted to all that is alive and vital.  It came into wider use thanks to biologist, naturalist and author Edward O. Wilson, who suggested that biophilia describes “the connections that human beings subconsciously seek with the rest of life.”  Read more.
