Lloyd Warren (1868-1922) was among the founding members of the Society of Beaux-Arts Architects in 1894 and an active member in the early days of the institution. He led the Education Committee to develop and expand the competition system. Warren established the Paris Prize, and secured a position for its winners in the first class at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France.
Unfortunately, due to an untimely death while sleepwalking, Warren did not live to see the hay-day of the Beaux-Arts Institute of Design in the 1930s. The Paris Prize was renamed the Lloyd Warren Fellowship Paris Prize in his honor.
