Biography

The Hon. Billy G. Mills (Ret.) served as a judge for the Los Angeles County Superior Court in California. Mills was appointed to the bench by former Governor Ronald Reagan in 1974. He retired in 1990.


Mills earned an associate’s degree from Compton College. He then attended the University of California, Los Angeles, where he completed a B.A. in English and political science (1951) and a J.D. (1954). Mills was the first African-American to graduate from the University of California, Los Angeles School of Law.


After graduating from law school, Mills spent a year working at Douglas Aircraft before joining the United States Army. He was stationed in the Far East with the Department of Adjutant General, defending enlisted men in court-martials. Mills was discharged in 1957, at which time he became a deputy county probation officer. Then, in 1960, he began his legal career as an attorney in private practice.


His memberships included the California State Bar Association, the American Bar Association, the Urban League, Angel City Lodge No. 18, Egyptian Temple No. 5., and the Trinity Baptist Church Layman’s League of Los Angeles.


He was named Judge of the Year by the Beverly Hills Bar Association and Alumnus of the Year by the University of California, Los Angeles.


Mills, a member of the Los Angeles City Council, is widely credited with helping the city through a tumultuous period after the Watts Riots from 1963 to 1974. He was one of the first three African-Americans elected to the council and sat on the Economic Opportunity Agency.


Raised in Waco, Texas, Mills relocated to Southern California after graduating from A.J. Moore High School, where he was captain and quarterback of the football team.
