Gregg Juarez (January 9, 1924 – May 26, 2018)[1][2] was an American art dealer who has been the proprietor of a series of galleries in both Europe and the United States, as well as a noted philanthropist. A native Californian, he was a ninth-generation member of a family which predates California becoming part of the United States. His family were the participants in the first recorded marriage in Mission Santa Barbara in the 18th century.[3] Over the years Juarez has owned galleries in Beverly Hills, Paris and Palm Beach, Florida. As a philanthropist he was a patron of both Pepperdine University and Scripps Health.[4] Juarez resided in Carlsbad, California, in a large pink house overlooking Batiquitos Lagoon, which was filled with his personal collection of artwork, including pieces by artists such as by Auguste Rodin, Joan Miró, Marc Chagall.[5]
