Summary "A picture book biography of L.A. architect, Paul R. Williams"-- Provided by publisher.
"As an orphaned Black boy growing up in Los Angeles in the early 1900s, Paul R. Williams became obsessed with the concept of 'home.' He not only dreamed of building his own home, he turned those dreams into drawings. Defying the odds and breaking down the walls of racism, Williams was able to curve around the obstacles in his way to become a world-renowned architect, designing homes for the biggest celebrities of the day...while creating a number of Los Angeles historic landmarks and thousands of private and public buildings across the United States."-- Front jacket flap.
