Richard Kelly (1910–1977) was an American lighting designer, considered one of the pioneers of architectural lighting design. Kelly had already established his own New York-based lighting practice in 1935 before enrolling at the Yale School of Architecture where he graduated in 1944. Kelly characterized the difficulty in selling lighting consultancy, then a new discipline, when he reflected "There weren't lighting consultants then. Nobody would pay for my ideas, but they would buy fixtures."
