James Homer Garrott Jr. (1897–1991), was an American architect active in the Los Angeles area in the mid-20th century.
Garrott's first major achievement was as co-designer of the 1928 Golden State Mutual Life Insurance Company.
[7] In 1946, Garrott was the second African-American admitted to the American Institute of Architects (AIA) in Los Angeles, after Paul R.
[8][9] Then they worked together in a "loose partnership" in the 1940s and 50s, and together designed a small office building that they shared in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los Angeles.
[11] Garrott was “politically well connected” and received nine commissions from the Los Angeles County Government in the late 1950s.
