	Sam Davis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sam Davis (1845–1863) is called the Boy Hero of the Confederacy.
		Davis' story, and its obvious parallel to that of Nathan Hale during the American Revolution, became a rallying point for the Southern cause in the waning days of the Confederacy.
		His boyhood home is preserved in Smyrna as a museum, and the spot of his hanging in Pulaski is likewise marked by a monument and a small museum which, as of 2004, was open by appointment and request only.

	Archinect : Views : Designing for the Homeless (Book Review)
		Sam Davis, long time professor of Architecture at UC Berkeley and author of several books on affordable housing, was awarded in 2002 a Guggenheim Fellowship to write his latest book, Designing for the Homeless: Architecture that Works.
		Davis argues that a much greater degree of creativity and collaboration between different economic entities, between the design community and policy advocates, is required in both our funding strategies as well as our housing design itself in order to progress past these singular dismembered forms of homeless relief.
		Though Davis reminds us, every shelter type is still needed to accommodate the multi tiered folds of homeless people with varying degrees of needed assistance, at least until we can create stable and quality housing where elements of design directly addresses the specific needs of each individual group.
