Jack DeForest Griffin (California, 7 January, 1892 — Los Angeles, California, 2 April, 1951) was an California trained architect who practiced in Washington State during most of the 1920s, first in Seattle and Tacoma, Washington as part of several firms and later independently in Chehalis, Washington. He moved back to his home state in 1928, relocating to Hollywood, California to take advantage of the building boom happening there at the time. Many of his designs showed a strong influence of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture and Mission Revival Style architecture most likely as a result of his architectural education at the University of Santa Clara in Southern California. His designs also showed influences of Beaux Arts and Italian Renaissance Revival architecture, all popular styles in the 1920s.

After graduating from the university, Griffin moved to Seattle, Washington in 1912 where he formed a partnership with I.H. Hill and later joined the Hewitt-Lea-Funck firm there. After these early partnerships, he helped form the prolific architectural firm of Hill, Mock & Griffin with Ernest T. Mock and Irwyn H. Hill with whom he would work for 7 years. Mock and Hill worked and resided in Tacoma while Griffin relocated to Chehalis, Washington, the county seat of Lewis County, where he would represent them there. In 1924 he left the partnership and soon became Lewis County's most prominent architect by designing many of the area's most conspicuous public buildings. He gained greater notoriety throughout the Pacific Northwest with his design for the Lewis County Courthouse and was featured in the Pacific Builder and Engineer magazine in 1926.

Griffin moved his practice to Hollywood, California in 1928 after designing a home there for his cousin, actress Bebe Daniels and gaining a large amount of commissions while visiting. He sold his Chehalis office to Fred G. Rounds, a seasoned architect and instructor at Washington State University in Pullman. With the onset of the Great Depression just around the corner, Rounds never experienced the volume of work that Griffin had.

Griffin passed away in Los Angeles, California on April 2, 1951 at the age of 59.
