William Francis Cody (June 19, 1916 - August 29, 1978) was an influential Desert Modern architect working in Palm Springs during the peak of the Modern Architecture Movement. Like many of the architects during the mid century Cody designed almost anything Palm Springs allowed him to; houses, cluster housing, churches, offices, restaurants, schools, hotels, and club houses. His residential projects illustrated simplicity of form, natural light, and large windows displaying a smooth connection between interior and exterior. Cody maintained a diverse practice in Coachella Valley of California. His work included designing country clubs, residences, hotels, library, and church projects in Palm Springs, Indian Wells, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, and in southern California, Arizona, Mexico, and Cuba.〔Forgotten modern: California houses 1940-1970 Alan Hess - Gibbs Smith - 2007 〕 ==Early years and education== William Francis Cody was born on June 19, 1916 in Dayton, Ohio, to William F. Cody, Sr. and Anna Elizabeth Shadle. His father owned a haberdashery while his mother worked as an interior designer. It was Anna's passion for art and architecture that influenced both William and his brother John. By 1930 the Cody family relocated to California where Cody was educated, married, and built his career. Cody designed and built stage sets for school plays alongside the son of Jack L. Warner while attending Beverly Hills High School; graduating in April 1932. Cody attended Santa Monica Junior College, graduating in 1939, and in 1940 he enrolled in the College of Architecture and Fine Arts at the University of Southern California; graduating with his degree in Architecture in 1942.〔The Architecture of William F.
