Michael J Beezer

• American

Michael J Beezer was an American architect best known as one half of the Beezer Brothers partnership, the influential firm he operated with his twin brother Louis beginning in the 1890s. Working first in Pennsylvania and later in Seattle, the Beezers produced a wide range of residential, commercial, and ecclesiastical buildings that reflected early twentieth-century architectural trends and the brothers' strong ties to the Roman Catholic Church. Michael remained based in Seattle after Louis opened a San Francisco branch in 1923, continuing the firm's work across the Pacific Northwest. His career contributed to the architectural character of communities such as Deer Lodge, Montana. - AsNotedIn
