Early lifeElrod was born in Atlanta, Georgia, grew up on a farm in Anderson, South Carolina, and studied design at South Carolina's Clemson University, before attending the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles.[1] CareerIn 1954, Elrod and Harold "Hal" Broderick started Arthur Elrod and Associates, an interior design firm on Palm Canyon Drive in Palm Springs, and went on to hire William C. Raiser, Steve Chase, and others.[1] Personal lifeIn 1968, architect John Lautner built a home for Elrod in Palm Springs, California that became known as the Elrod House. The parties he held at the Elrod House were "legendary", Bill Blass held a fashion show, Playboy did a November 1971 feature, Pleasure on the Rocks, and the house was used as Willard Whyte's mansion in the 1971 James Bond film, Diamonds Are Forever. The house has been described as the "ultimate bachelor pad", and it has been noted that increasing numbers of the "pads" in Playboy in the 1970s belonged to out gay men like Elrod.[2] Elrod was a close friend of Bob Hope and his wife Dolores.[3] Elrod and his associate, William Raiser, died in a traffic accident on February 18, 1974, when their Fiat sportscar was hit by a drunk teenage driver. Elrod was 49 years old.[4][5] References1. ^1 {{cite book |first=Adèle |last=Cygelman |title=Palm Springs Modern |url=http://www.becksondesign.com/pdf/books/1999-palm_springs_modern.pdf |publisher=Rizzoli |year=2015 |page=168 |isbn=978-0847844104}} 2. ^{{cite journal |url=https://www.griffith.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/531523/S02_03_Sewell_Opening-the-Boundaries.pdf |title=Opening the Boundaries of Architectural History: Popular Culture, Imaginary Buildings, and the Influence of the Bachelor Pad |first=Jessica |last=Sewell |journal=Proceedings of the Society of Architectural Historians, Australia and New Zealand: 30, Open |publisher=Society of Architectural Historians, Australia and New Zealand |volume=1 |pages=67-79 |date=July 2–5, 2013 |isbn=978-0-9876055-0-4}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://archives.chicagotribune.com/1974/02/22/page/42/article/friends-shocked-by-elrods-death |title=Friends Shocked by Elrod's Death |first=Norma Lee |last=Browning |newspaper=Chicago Tribune |page=12 |date=February 22, 1974}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1974/02/20/archives/arthur-elrod-killed-in-crash-interior-designer-was-49.html?_r=0 |title=Arthur Elrod Killed in Crash; Interior Designer Was 49 |newspaper=The New York Times |page=40 |date=February 20, 1974}} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cgi-bin/cdnc?a=d&d=DS19740218.2.3 |title=Famous Designer Elrod Killed in Car Collision |newspaper=The Desert Sun |page=1 |date=February 18, 1974}} External links
