Glenn Walters, a former executive with Herman Miller Inc, was considered to be one of the key individuals in the development of the open-office concept and office cubicles. He died on April 18, 2010 at the age of 85 in Michigan.
During his time with Herman Miller Inc, he lead a task force that developed and marketed the "Action Office" system beginning in 1968. His idea involved movable walls and was a drastic departure form the standard fixed office desks of the time. It would later evolve into the cubicle concept.
