He served as United States director of decorative art at the Paris Exposition in 1900. Paris did architectural decorative work in the State Capitols of Missouri, Minnesota and West Virginia, as well as for numerous universities. From 1901 he worked with his own firm, Paris & Wiley Associates, in New York. In 1922 Paris was named Chévalier de la Légion d'Honneur and immediately set about founding the American Society of the French Legion of Honor.
