Life and career

James W. O'Connor was born in June 3, 1873 in New York City. He was educated at Columbia University and worked in the offices of McKim, Mead & White and Schickel & Ditmars before opening an independent office in 1910. In 1920 architect James F. Delany became an associate of the firm, followed in 1925 by Paul Schulz. After Schulz departed in 1931 O'Connor and Delaney worked in association under O'Connor's name until his death.

O'Connor was the preferred architect of W. R. Grace and Company, and designed their offices in New York City, London and Lima.

O'Connor joined the American Institute of Architects in 1941 and was elected a Fellow in 1952, shortly before his death. His fellowship was supported by notable architects including Harvey Wiley Corbett, William Adams Delano, Howard Greenley, Ely Jacques Kahn, Francis Keally, Julian Clarence Levi and Ralph Walker.
