Editors' Note
Our Sealey Collection is named for mid-century architect, Roy A. Sealey. Born in Panama in 1917, Sealey was the second oldest of Dr. Samuel Joseph Sealey's four children with his wife, Ethel Blanche McPherson. After a brief stay in Kingston, Jamaica, the Sealey family immigrated to New York, coming through Ellis Island in 1924 before moving to Bryan, Texas. There, Sealey's father began a medical practice, while Sealey studied architecture at Prairie View Agricultural & Mechanical College. Then in 1939, when Sealey was 22 years old, his work attracted attention from the University of Southern California (USC), which offered him an academic scholarship to further his studies in architecture. Before the year was over, Roy began working in the studio of iconic architect, Paul Revere Williams, who would mentor him for much of his career. In 1945, Sealey struck out on his own and within 5 years had amassed millions in commissions, all before becoming a licensed architect in 1957. Dubbed the "Architect for the Wealthy," by Ebony magazine, more commissions followed, including the SeaPort Marina Hotel in 1963, as well as the Tuna Club, and the clubhouse of the Belmont Shores Mobile Estates. All three projects were located in Long Beach, then an up-and-coming area. One of Sealey's most famed projects was the Cockatoo Inn - a destination for politicians, actors and west coast mobsters alike. Originally the Cockatoo Cafe, an unremarkable "rib-and-chicken joint," following a fire, Sealey was contracted to redesign the property as the Cockatoo Inn. The inn became a major fixture in 1960s LA, hosting an elite clientele that included Mickey Rooney and Betty Grable, as well John and Bobby Kennedy, and Marilyn Monroe, a native of the city of Hawthorne, California, where the hotel was located. Throughout the 70s, Sealey completed a number of projects for LA County and USC. A major influence in shaping the aesthetic and culture of southern California, Roy A. Sealey passed away in 2008 at the age of 90.
