L. L. Bradbury was an investor and real estate developer prominent in Los Angeles in the late 19th century. In the 1880s, he acquired the Rancho Azusa de Duarte, which now includes the city of Duarte. He died in 1892. His son Lewis Bradbury assumed control of the family business in 1902 and incorporated the Bradbury Estate Company in 1904.
