Biographical Information

Reston is a planned community in Northern Virginia. Robert E. Simon, Jr. was the founder of Reston, and he purchased the land with the proceeds from the sale of Carnegie Hall in New York City in 1961. Construction began in 1963 with the building of Lake Anne. Then Gulf Oil Corporation formed a subsidiary, Reston Gulf, Inc., in 1967 and took complete financial and operational control. When the Mobil Corporation bought the remaining undeveloped land from Gulf Reston in 1978, Reston Land Corporation was formed as a subsidiary. Peter McCandless served as a publicist who worked with developers to market Reston and also co-wrote with Thomas Grubisich, "Reston: The First Twenty Years" (1985).
