Built for Louis Samuel and later owned by Ramon Novarro, the Samuel-Novarro house is sometimes mistakenly attributed to Frank Lloyd Wright™, Senior.

Lloyd Wright (Frank Lloyd Wright, Jr.) built a successful practice in Los Angeles after coming here to supervise his father's few Los Angeles projects in the 1920's.
