AIA Recognizes Legacy of African American Architect Paul R. Williams with Gold Medal Awarded Nearly 40 Years After His Death by VICTORIA L
AIA Recognizes Legacy of African American Architect Paul R. Williams with Gold Medal Awarded Nearly 40 Years after His Death by VICTORIA L. VALENTINE on Apr 29, 2017 • 5:58 am Residence in Hollywood, Calif., designed in 1928 by Paul Williams for banking executive Victor Rosetti. STATELY AND GRACEFUL are the descriptors frequently invoked in real state listings for homes designed by architect Paul Revere Williams (1894-1980). The Williams name adds quantifiable prestige to prime properties on the most desirable streets in Beverly Hills, Hollywood Hills, Holmby Hills, and Hancock Park, homes often rendered in classic L.A. Beaux Arts style for which the African American architect is known. One of the foremost architects in Los Angeles, Williams designed more than 2,000 residences including homes for the elite of Hollywood’s golden age—Frank Sinatra, Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, Lon Chaney, and Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, among many others. His imprint is in evidence throughout the city and the wider Southern California region. He also worked on select projects in other parts of the country. In addition to homes, his portfolio features many schools, churches, civic buildings and commercial spaces. The list includes city landmarks such as LAX Airport, L.A. County Courthouse, and the Beverly Hills Hotel. He also designed many sites of cultural and social significance in the African American community, including First A.M.E. Church of Los Angeles, Angelus Funeral Home, and the headquarters of the black-owned Golden State Mutual Life Insurance Company. Williams was the first licensed African American architect west of the Mississippi (1921). -
