Arthur Burnett Benton (April 17, 1858 – 1927) was an American architect. LifeHe was born in Peoria, Illinois. He studied at the School of Art and Design, at Topeka, Kansas. He worked for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. He moved to Los Angeles. He promoted Mission Revival architecture.[1][2] In 1900, he received the commission for the First Church of Christian Science, in Riverside, CA, which was built in that style. This building caught the eye of Frank Augustus Miller, who ran a nearby adobe tourist hotel, known as the Glenwood Inn. Miller had a vision of a great Mission Style hotel and in Benton, he saw the man to make his vision a reality. In 1902, work began on the first phase of the Mission Inn, under Benton’s supervision. He did several additions to the sprawling complex, including the “Cloister Wing”, which was modeled after the Mission in Carmel.[3] He was President of the Southern California Chapter of the American Institute of Architects.[4] His papers are at the University of California, Santa Barbara.[5] FamilyIn 1893, he married Harriet Phillipina von Schilling.
