Boyd E. Georgi (January 20, 1914 - October 19, 1999)[1] was a USC-trained California architect with a Southern California practice in modernism that spanned from residential works to schools and libraries. Georgi was president of the Pasadena and Foothill chapter of the AIA in 1964.[2]

Georgi is known for a number of important late modernist houses and other buildings in the California area.[3] Georgi's most significant largely-unmodified work is the Altadena library main branch (1967).[4]

Georgi also taught at the USC School of Architecture.
