Arthur W. Van Horn
Arthur Wesley Van Horn (15 March 1860 – 18 April 1931) was a prolific architect of Bismarck, North Dakota. A number of Van Horn's works, alone or as part of his firm (Ritterbush Brothers), are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
Arthur Van Horn was born at Hackensack, in Bergen County, New Jersey. His parents were Cornelius J. and Almira Van Saun. He worked and studied in New York City, where he attended The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art and received private instruction in the study of architecture. He moved to Bismarck and began as an independent architect in 1883. He worked with Karl A. Loven in Van Horn & Loven during 1917–1919, and with Robert A. Ritterbush and Clarence W. Ritterbush in Van Horn & Ritterbush Brothers during 1920–1931. The Bismarck-based firm evolved as Ritterbush Brothers during 1931–1974 and subsequently as Ritterbush Associates.
