Beverly Hills School Board Talks Student Cell Phone Restrictions By Matt Lopez Could harsher cell phone restrictions be in the future for Beverly Hills students? The Board of Education on Tuesday discussed potential board policy that would place restrictions on the use of cell phones across Beverly Hills Unified School District campuses. The debate – which was only a discussion, not an item to vote on – was brought up at the request of Board of Education President Noah Margo. Margo said he’s seen “massive amounts of evidence” about the “addictive nature of cell phones” and said he felt the use of cell phones on Beverly Hills school campuses has a negative affect on interpersonal communication between students. Currently, the Board of Education has no official policy on cell phone usage on school campuses. Superintendent Dr. Michael Bregy said each school campus has guidelines and procedures laid out in their specific school handbooks regarding cell phone usage.

Bregy said that on the K-8 campuses, cell phones are “not to be seen or heard at anytime during the school day” while at Beverly Hills High School, the current rule is phones are to be turned off in the classroom, but under the teacher’s discretion. Margo said those handbooks are difficult to enforce and said the school board should consider adopting an official policy. Margo compared what he hopes the school board can accomplish with cell phones on campuses to the City of Beverly Hills’ recent vote to ban tobacco sales. He cited reports that “high schools all over the country are banning cell phones” but said he’s not calling for an outright ban. “I’m willing to be flexible, but I am demanding change… we need to temper usage to create a different culture in our schools,” Margo said. “People come to [these schools] like zombies. We are headed for something that nobody saw coming… [people] created this device that is so (see ‘CELL PHONES’ page 15)

Forbes Lists Three Beverly Hills Hotels Among ‘World’s Best Hotel Rooms’ By Matt Lopez For travelers hoping to stay in some of the finest lodgings in existence, look no further than Beverly Hills. According to Forbes magazine’s list of the World’s Best Hotel Rooms for 2019, Beverly Hills is home to three of the 41 best luxury accommodations found anywhere in the world. The list was compiled by what Forbes called its “incognito travelers” who spanned the globe seeking out the most high-end accommodations. “They didn’t simply look for stunning interiors,” Forbes’ report read. “These 41 rooms in 17 countries earned perfect scores on our exacting standards for luxury, comfort and convenience, which means they are elegantly appointed and thoughtfully designed down to the last detail.”

The Peninsula Beverly Hills, which Forbes called a “timeless stay in the heart of L.A.”, the Montage Beverly Hills (“Spanish Colonial elegance in Tinseltown”) and Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills (“Classic luxury in Beverly Hills”) each made the list. Forbes' Jennifer Kester wrote that undercover inspectors checked into each hotel for a two-night stay, paying their own way and posing as regular guests. During each stay, they evaluated up to 90 objective standards, including whether rooms are properly soundproofed, quality of linens and types of snacks in the mini-bar. The only other hotel room in the Southern California area to make the list was Malibu’s Nobu Ryokan.

School Board Moves Ahead With Temporary Theater Plans By Matt Lopez The Beverly Hills Board of Education voted unanimously this week the purchase of a temporary performance structure at Beverly Hills High School. Last week, the Courier reported that the school board discussed the possibility of erecting a temporary tent-like structure to house the school’s performing arts groups once the Salter Family Theater goes offline during construction. Board President Noah

Margo said that the temporary structure would not only be used for music and theater performances, but also for various school assemblies and gatherings throughout the school year. The Beverly Hills Unified School District will sole source the purchase through a company called Sprung Instant Structures, which according to the company’s website, has created over 12,000 temporary structure projects across the (see ‘BHHS THEATRE’ page 15)

Beverly Hills’ Original ‘Girl Next Door’ Doris Day Dies At 97 By John L. Seitz There is a house on Crescent Drive that was home for more than 30 years to one of the most beloved and talented show business icons who died Monday at the age of 97. The name of this original “girl next door” was Doris Day. Born in Cincinnati on April 3, 1922, Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff began her career as a big band singer in 1939, with her first hit recording being Sentimental Journey in 1945 with Les Brown & His Band of Renown. She later embarked on a solo career, recording more than 650 songs during the next two decades. Her legendary film career began in 1948 with Romance On The High Seas, and continued with Tea For Two, Calamity Jane, On Moonlight Bay, On Moonlight Bay, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Pillow Talk, Pajama Game, That Touch Of Mink, Move Over, Darling, The Thrill of It All, and her highly acclaimed Love Me Or Leave Me. She co-starred with most of the biggest names in the 1950s and 60s, including Clark

Gable, C a r y Grant, J a m e s Stewart, Jimmy C a g n e y, R o c k Hudson, Gordon MacRae, David Niven, Tony Randall, James Garner, Rod Taylor, etc. After her final film in 1968, she starred in the sitcom The Doris Day Show (1968–1973). Day was one of eight performers to have been the top box-office earner in the United States four times. She received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, a Legend Award from the Society of Singers, a “Best Actress” Oscar nomination, and the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement in motion pictures at the Golden Globes. In 2004, she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, followed in 2011 by the L.A. Film Critics Association's Career Achievement Award. Her longtime friend, talent

agent and producer Pierre Patrick wrote The Doris Day Companion and several other books on the star and worked on her music re-releases and DVDs. According to him, her favorite restaurant while living in Beverly Hills was Nate'n Al. After permanently moving from the City more than three decades ago, she made her home in Carmel, where she established The Doris Day A n i m a l Fo u n d a t i o n . Instead of bringing joy to music and movie fans, she switched gears and spent her full time providing unconditional love to thousands of our four footed friends.

Hollywood Reporter-Billboard, Dick Clark Productions Set To Move To 100 Crescent By Victoria Talbot The Hollywood ReporterBillboard Media Group and Dick Clark Productions are moving to the Beverly Hills Media Center at 100 Crescent Drive, leasing 118,000 square feet in the building owned by Eldridge Industries, a spokesman confirms. The Hollywood Reporter – Billboard Media Group was acquired by Valence Media, along with Dick Clark Productions and Media Rights Capital – last year. In January, Variety reported that at least 22 people were laid off during the height of the busy awards season in a reorganization. Valence Media is led by Co-CEOs Asif Satchu and Modi Wiczyk; Dodgers owner Todd Boehly is chairman. Representatives for the proposed remodel have repeatedly stated the need for more room as a condition for moving to Beverly Hills and the reason for the additional height and FAR. Dick Clark Productions is currently housed in the Lantana office campus in Santa Monica, and Billboard and The

Hollywood Reporter are currently in the Wilshire Courtyard on the Miracle Mile. Plans for the remodel would include a 100-seat screening room and a groundfloor restaurant. The undulating exterior façade would become flattened and sheathed in glass, removing character-contributing architectural features from the potentially historic building, which is eligible for historic designation in the State of California. It is not eligible for designation in Beverly Hills or with the Federal Register. A controversial request for a Mixed Use Overlay for the Beverly Hills Media Center at 100 N. Crescent Drive was continued last week to a date

uncertain. The project has generated much public controversy. Public comments from singlefamily home owners on Rexford Drive have repeatedly cited shade and shadow studies, privacy, noise and traffic from the loading dock behind their homes and other issues. A spokesman for the Eldridge Industries has stated that they continue to explore their options. Eldridge owns Cain International, the company that has partnered with Beverly Hilton owner Beny Alagem in the One Beverly Hills project, acquired last year in a surprise sell-off by Wang Jianlin of the Wanda Group.

9304 Warbler Project Unanimously Rejected By Planning Commission

By Victoria Talbot In a unanimous decision (4-0 with Commissioner Joe Shooshani recused), the Planning Commission denied all of the applicant’s requests last Thursday for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), Trousdale R-1 Permit to allow an accessory dwelling unit, six variances and a Lot Line Adjustment (LLA) on property located in Trousdale on the eastern border of Beverly Hills and adjacent to a single-family home owned by the applicant at 9304 Warbler Way in Los Angeles. The LLA was proposed as a potential remedy for a subdivision violation identified by the Planning Commission in 2017, which established that the subdivision was created in violation of City Ordinance No. 1058, potentially producing a dual-jurisdiction lot with different standards for the Los Angeles portion than for the Beverly Hills portion. The applicant also proposed a project that involved the construction of an ADU located on the lot identified as being in violation of the subdi-

vision standards. The applicant appealed the subdivision violation to City Council, where it was heard last Tuesday prior to the Planning Commission meeting and continued to no later than the end of the calendar year, pending the outcome. The three parcels were created by a grant deed in the late 1950s which divided the subject parcels from three larger lots created by a City approved tract map with lot frontage on Hillcrest Road within the City of Beverly Hills. In Sept. 2016, the property owner, Vance Owen, expressed his position that the parcels were legally created, including the middle Parcel 99, which was created after the March 1959 City Ordinance No. 1058. The hearing lasted several hours, with opposition from The Trousdale Homeowners Association, the Doheny Sunset Plaza Neighborhood Association, residents from below the site on Flicker Way and from surrounding streets and Emma Howard, Senior (see ‘WARBLER’ page 10)

Modern Architecture Legend I.M. Pei Dead At 102 I.M. Pei, the preeminent architect who forged a distinct brand of modern building design with his sharp lines and stark structures, has died in New York, his sons' architecture firm said Thursday. He was 102 years old. The Chinese-born Pei was the mastermind behind the bold Louvre pyramid in Paris, the landmark 72-story Bank of China tower in Hong Kong and Athens' Museum of Modern Art, works seen as embracing modernity tempered by a grounding in history. One of Pei's few Southern California designs resides in Beverly Hills, the former headquarters for Creative Artists Agency in the Golden Triangle. The building, three stories high and Postmodern, was developed in 1989. CAA used the building until moving to a new Century City office in 2007.

In his adopted home country the United States, Pei became perhaps best known for his landmark East Building at Washington's National Gallery of Art, deftly melding sharp modern angles with the monumental grandeur the US capital is known for. "Contemporary architects tend to impose modernity on something. There is a certain concern for history but it is not very deep," Pei told The New York Times in a 2008 interview. "I understand that times have changed, we have evolved. But I don't want to forget the beginning." In 1975, Pei was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters. He was also one of 12 naturalized US citizens then-president Ronald Reagan awarded the Medal of Liberty in 1986. –– AFP

jurisdiction… Councilmember Ryu… hopes you will join him in opposing the forthcoming applications.” After several hours of testimony, the Planning Commission could not make the findings for a Lot Line Adjustment that would have resolved the subdivision violation. To do so, they would have had to grant a variance from the subdivision ordinance that deviates from the requirement for a minimum 4,000 square foot pad. The Planning Commission could not approve an accessory structure without the Lot Line Adjustment. The violation of the subdivision remains on appeal.

The story, about a seemingly “perfect” world with zero pollution, crime or poverty, but also zero self-determination, is the result of brainstorming sessions between the 23 members of the company discussing their dreams and desires with staff and teachers. “This season we talked a lot about identity,” says Miracle Project Founder Elaine Hall. “We asked, what does that mean? who are you? and who do you want to be seen as? They came up with the idea of a near-futuristic society, where identity is predetermined at 21, based on a person’s social media and cliques. “This is a society with no individualism,” says Hall. And she points out that people with autism often are not allowed to be who they are. “Society

stamps them. So we’ve made an allegory about how society puts labels on those with autism” “Many individuals with developmental disabilities and neurological differences are made to believe that their potential roles in society are limited and have been predetermined by their diagnosis,” says Hall. The show imagines an alternative world in which everyone—regardless of ability—is forced to conform to pre-determined destinies based on data collected from their birth. (see ‘IDENTITY’ page 14)

By Steve Simmons Nurit Siegel Smith is eagerly awaiting the Music Forward Foundation’s “Bringing Down the House,” concert at 7 p.m., Thursday, May 23 at The Wiltern, 3790 Wilshire Blvd, L.A. She is executive director of the House of Blues Music Forward Foundation, which she terms “a bridge for aspiring young musicians from their communities into the highly competitive music industry.” The “Bringing Down the House” concert is the culmination of the foundation’s free sixweek artist development program of the same name. “We go deep into the community,” says Smith, “To high schools and teachers and social service agencies looking for youth ages 14-20 from all over Southern California to apply to the program.” The goal, says Smith, is “to create access and economic opportunity—with a focus on under-resourced, and underserved, youth, using the music industry as a conduit.” Applicants submit photos, one original song and a purpose statement telling why they want to be part of the program.

“These are passionate musicians who may need studio space, computer support, guidance on marketing and access to professionals,” says Smith. As part of Live Nation Entertainment, the foundation draws on the company’s professional talent buyers to rate the hundreds of submissions received on musicianship, sound quality and originality, narrowing the field to six to eight bands or artists, working to ensure a mix of genres. This year’s lineup includes alt-rock, pop, jazz, R&B, and latin pop. “We also try to build a diverse group that can learn from each other and start to

develop a network of artists,” says Smith. The recently concluded Saturday sessions featured panel discussions that rolled into hands-on activities with industry professionals from House of Blues, Capitol Records, Quincy Jones Productions, WarnerChappell Music, Island Records and more, volunteering their time. These mentors discussed such topics as how technology is changing the industry, being “authentic” performers and navigating careers, to advice on pitch, stage presence, having a “look” and costuming. “It’s also imperative for us and the professional musicians to give a holistic view of the industry because we know the percentage of folks who make it and survive. It’s a difficult feat,” says Smith. “You have a better shot at becoming an astronaut than a working arena musician. So we try to give everybody an understanding of all jobs and opportunities in the industry and showing other pathways.” Born in Israel, Smith moved to Beverly Hills with her parents at 3-years old and went through the Beverly Hills school system, (see ‘CONCERT’ page 14)

Two other Beverly Hills High students attended Tuesday’s meeting and used the public comment period to voice their disagreement for the idea. One student, JJ Gluckman, said he disagreed with the notion that cell phones distract from social interaction, saying he believes they are actually an “enhancement of interaction.” Gluckman said he frequently used his phone in class to take pictures of notes or pages out of large textbooks that he didn’t want to have to carry home just for one homework assignment. Boardmember Tristen Walker-Shuman pushed back vehemently against any cell phone restrictions. She said her son frequently takes photos of notes in class, and said not all students are great note takers

and prefer to take pictures of notes they need to study later. “I’m not inclined to throw our students under the bus,” Walker-Shuman said. “They work their butts off. All the things our students handle, the time, stressors, AP tests, honors, everything else in their schedule. If we’re going to make a big deal of them taking a picture of an assignment on the board, and that’s something we decide to make policy on, we’re missing the mark.” The issue of cell phones on school grounds in California has been slowly making its way through the legislature since Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance) introduced Assembly Bill 272 in March, which would require school districts to develop a policy that either prohibits or restricts the use of smartphones on school grounds during school hours. "Growing evidence shows excessive smartphone use at school interferes with education, encourages cyberbullying, and may have adverse effects on teenage mental health, including increased rates of depression and suicide," said Assemblymember Muratsuchi. Currently, AB 272 is in the Senate awaiting referral to committee. “We assume Education Committee will get it,” Muratsuchi’s spokeperson Kerry Jacob told the Courier. Bregy said he will obtain reports on cell phone usage on Beverly Hills campuses, as well as reports on any conduct issues that have arisen from cell phone use, and return to a future meeting to present them the board.

BHUSD spokesperson Rebecca Starkins said the district will begin discussions with Sprung on exactly how the structure will take shape, and said pricing will depend on many factors, including whether the district opts to buy or lease, as well as other “extras” such as chairs, staging, disability requirements and much more. Starkins said the district’s facilities team is doing its due diligence on pricing and timeline and will report back to the school board in June with a recommendation.

Book Of Beasts Brings Medieval Imagination Alive At The Getty By Victoria Talbot Filled with mystical creatures in illuminated manuscripts and magnificent tapestries that transport the viewer to a world of fabulous creatures, Book of Beasts: The Bestiary in the Medieval World at the J. Paul Getty Museum explores The Bestiary and its widespread influence on medieval art and culture for the first time in a major museum exhibit. Images of beasts from the Christian bible produced during the European Middle Ages are familiar, said Timothy Potts, director of the J. Paul Getty Museum. “Less well known, however, are the various genres of writing and illustration that celebrate and ornament aspects of worldly life and popular belief. Among the most widely-read and striking of these was the bestiary: illustrated collections of real, imaginary and hybrid beasts, many of exotic origin and sometimes entirely fantastic, that give visual form to the creatures believed to inhabit the known world and the distant realms beyond. Both for their artistic inventiveness and for the insights they provide into the fertile medieval imagination, these works are one of the most engaging aspects of medieval art.” Encased in glass and turned to reveal some of the

most beautifully illustrated pages, the exhibit features onethird of the world’s surviving Latin illuminated bestiaries and more than 100 works in a variety of media from institutions across the United States and Europe, including manuscripts, paintings, tapestries, sculpture and decorative arts from the Middle Ages. The final portion of the installation depicts startling contemporary interpretations influenced by the medieval images. Comparing these images to contemporary memes, Senior Curator of Manuscripts Elizabeth Morrison said, “They served as memorable and engaging snapshots of particular animals that went viral in medieval culture.” The Bestiary represents anywhere from a dozen to 100 descriptions of animals, accompanied by images. The texts and images remain consistent – but the stories illuminate the variety of hidden meanings in the natural world. The exhibit conveys the fantastical images of medieval artistry, including depictions of birds, serpents, unicorns, hippos, elephants, sea creatures, felines and dragons - against the spectacular backdrop of the mythological and cultural significance of medieval fantasy. Beyond texts, the imagery

is conveyed in moving tapestries, ivories, metalwork and stained-glass images that transcend geographic boundaries and religions. The exhibit is accompanied by a catalog Book Of Beasts: The Bestiary In The Medieval World (Getty Publications, $60.00, hardcover) with over 270 color illustrations and contributions from 26 leading scholars, exploring the bestiary and its pervasive influence on medieval art and culture. The exhibition is on display at the J. Paul Getty Museum, 1200 Getty Center, through Aug. 18. No reservation is required for parking or general admission and parking rates vary.

BEVERLY GARDENS

restored landmark was completed in February, 2014. The Electric Fountain, once the most advanced technology of its time, had deteriorated. Designed by Merrell Gage and Ralph Carlin Flewelling, the Fountain was the product of the City’s early philanthropy. It was donated by Harold Lloyd’s mother with funding from the Beverly Hills Women’s Club. In 2015, however, where once the fountain water had gushed in dancing colors, the lights had gone out. Tiles were missing and broken and water leaked. Today, the mechanisms have been upgraded to produce the delightful colored mists again, with modern equipment that will last for decades. But those were just the beginning of the park’s restoration. One by one, from the pergola to the cactus garden, each block has been meticulously brought up to 21st Century standards. In addition, beneath the ground, vital drainage and plumbing has been replaced. Environmentally-friendly bioswales have been strategically placed along Santa Monica Boulevard as part of the Santa Monica Boulevard reconstruction project to cleanse stormwater as it drains

to the ocean. As part of the reconstruction, LED streetlights illuminate the night for parkgoers and joggers, and their route is safer still because of the highly-visible raised midblock crosswalks that link the walking paths. Through turf reduction and the substitution of drought-tolerant vegetation, the restored parks will experience an estimated reduction of 45-50% in water usage. Finally, the Doheny Fountain, located between Oakhurst Drive and Doheny Drive, the easternmost gateway to the City, proved to be too deteriorated to restore with a water feature. The Cultural Heritage Commission worked with the Recreation and Parks Commission for a path to reconstruction, which cost the City $293,858 and yielded an elegantly recreated the 1931 W. Asa Hudson-designed fountain that will enhance the gateway for decades to come. As the City celebrates the resurrection of the City’s famed greenbelt, a lovely buffer between businesses and residential, they can be proud of the local philanthropy that raised $4.059 million towards the restoration. The City of Beverly Hills added $7.966 million for a total restoration cost of $12.025 million.

show its respect for its heritage. Beverly Gardens Park restoration began as a project of the Friends of Beverly Gardens Park prior to the 2014 Centennial Celebration year. In 2012, then-Recreation and Parks Commissioner Robbie Anderson, whose great grandmother, Margaret Anderson, founded The Beverly Hills Hotel, replicated the historic “Beverly Hills” sign, which once announced a stop on the train from downtown Los Angeles to the beach at Santa Monica. In conjunction with the Beverly Hills Rotary Club, the sign, located on the block between Beverly Drive and Canon Drive, is now one of the most photographed sites in the City, where hundreds of tourists stop daily to enjoy the iconic landmark. It is framed by the Lily Pond, also one of the City’s favorite icons. For decades, the pond was a dry flower bed, filled in by the City to avoid the cost of repairs and maintenance. The Lily Pond required complete reconstruction and is now the placid backdrop of countless photos the world over. The Lily pond groundbreaking took place on Oct. 14, 2013 and the newly

We were invited by Tim Radigan-Brophy to attend the 6th annual “A Day of Hope” luncheon at The Classic Club in Palm Desert.

There were five other area treatment sites, but none was exclusively for females, this at the time when Riverside County was the metamphetamine capital of the U.S. The local 10 Soroptomist clubs recognized the need and raised enough money for a recovery home based on a 12-step treatment program. The name given to this facility: “The House of Hope.” RHoH raises funds from various sources, public, private and federal, helping over 40,000 women in the process. RHoH is an independent, non-profit, not affiliated or subsidized in whole or in part by the National or International Soropitimist organizations.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may visit the website below using the file number assigned to this case. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected on the Internet Web site.
