Arthur Hills

Arthur Hills (1930 – May 18, 2021) was an American golf course designer. He designed more than 200 new golf courses, including private, resort, upscale, and public golf courses around the world. In addition, Arthur Hills' firm, Arthur Hills/Steve Forrest and Associates, has been requested to renovate or modify more than 120 courses, including some of the country's most renowned clubs, often in preparation for major USGA and PGA Championships.

Hills was born in 1930 in Toledo, Ohio. He attended Michigan State University, where he earned a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture (Agronomy) in 1953 and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Michigan.

Hills designed his first golf course in 1967: the course was Brandywine Country Club in Toledo, Ohio. Hills stated that his main goal when designing a golf course was to make it playable for everyone of every skill level. Hills designed golf courses in Portugal (2001), Croatia (2012), and Sweden.

Hills later served as chief designer for Arthur Hills/Steve Forrest and Associates. Much of the work that he performed was redesigning golf courses.
