From the Editor

FALL 2016 Publisher Oscar Arslanian

all is here and as our visitors go home, thousands of students arrive or return to school. The air is electric, filled with dreams and possibilities. Venerable Los Angeles City College (LACC) is this year’s focus for our Education Issue with its rich 100 year history and list of outstanding alumni. Rachel Flanagan’s comprehensive article takes us back to the beginning and forward to the future. For over a century, this institution has evolved to serve the needs of the community. Hollywood’s campuses run the gamut from the traditional to the fantasy. Our cover shot of Universal Studios’ Hogwarts Castle where Harry Potter and friends studied the art of magic and sorcery is just mysterious enough to remind us of funfilled Halloween activities that fill out our Special Event pages. Scott Martin discovers Columbia Square, the new media campus that gives life to one of Hollywood’s most notable landmarks—the CBS complex at Sunset and Gower. Designated a historic cultural landmark, the revamped, revised and restored complex will soon welcome media giant Viacom. Inspired by LACC’s 100 years, we remind our readers that history in Hollywood not only rests in the past but exists all around us. With each passing year, contrary to the belief that there’s little that’s old in Los Angeles, numerous structures and institutions will be added to that noteworthy list as the years go by.

Books for Fall and Holiday Gifts To get a start on your holiday gift-buying or your own early fall reading, we offer the following Hollywoodrelated reading suggestions.

Gourmet Ghosts 2 by James Bartlett James Bartlett wrote the first Gourmet Ghosts – Los Angeles after bar hopping in Hollywood and being told a ghostly tale that led him into the newspaper archives—and down many of the city’s dark, historic rabbit holes. With an arsenal of poison, jealousy, despair, serial killers, scandals, guns, and the ghost stories left behind, Gourmet Ghosts 2 is another collection of murder, mystery and history at dozens of bars, restaurants, hotels and landmarks across Los Angeles. These new weird tales, unpublished accounts, shocking photos and treasures uncovered in the newspaper archives take you from Downtown to The Valley. Discover where you can drink with the devil or dine with a ghost—your perfect Halloween companion. Teen Idol On The Rocks: A Tale of Second Chances by Bobby Rydell with Allan Slutsky Written with award-winning author, Alan Slutsky, Bobby Rydell’s biography Teen Idol On The Rocks takes you from the idyllic dance floor of American Bandstand and strains of his hits Wild One and Volare on a six-decade career and journey. One of rock and roll’s earliest and most celebrated teen idols, Rydell’s battles with alcoholism and his lifesaving doubletransplant surgery, offers a humorous, tragic and inspiring story. Still going strong, Rydell will return to the silver screen next year in Taylor Hackford’s The Comedian with Robert De Niro, 54 years after his indelible song-and-dance acting stint opposite Ann Margret in the iconic movie musical Bye Bye Birdie. Mission: Jimmy Stewart and the Fight for Europe by Robert Matzen Academy award-winning actor Jimmy Stewart was born into a family with a proud military history and structured his life to fulfill that destiny. Mission begins with his years at Princeton, the Broadway years and his success as a Hollywood playboy and film star. The book chronicles how a movie star thwarted studio heads trying to sidetrack him into a safe desk job. Jimmy eventually landed in the thick of the European theatre where he served with distinction. The man who came home from the war was much changed. Jimmy eventually rose to the rank of Brigadier General in the United States Air Force Reserve, the highest-ranking actor in military history. Mission is the story he never told and it’s one of those books you can’t put down. It’s the story of strong family ties, enduring friendships, military comradery and nightmares, Hollywood glitz and glamour, and people he encountered along the way.

Th Real James Dean: Intimate Memories from Those Who Knew Him Best by Peter L. Winkler In the decades following his death, many of those who knew James Dean best– –actors, directors, friends, lovers (both men and women), photographers, and Hollywood columnists––shared stories of their first-person experiences with him in interviews and in the articles and autobiographies they wrote. Their recollections of Dean became lost in fragile back issues of movie magazines and newspapers and in out-of-print books that are extremely hard to find. Until now. Here are the memorable personal accounts of Dean from his high school and college drama teachers; the girl he almost married; costars like Rock Hudson, Natalie Wood, Jim Backus, and Raymond Massey; directors Elia Kazan, Nicholas Ray, and George Stevens; entertainer Eartha Kitt; gossip queen Hedda Hopper; the passenger who accompanied Dean on his final, fatal road trip; and a host of his other friends and colleagues. Good Vibrations: My Life As A Beach Boy by Mike Love and James S. Hirsch As a founding member of The Beach Boys, Mike Love has spent an extraordinary fifty-five years—and counting—as the group's lead singer and one of its principal lyricists. The Beach Boys, from their California roots to their international fame, are a unique American story—

one of overnight success and age-defying longevity; of musical genius and reckless self-destruction; of spirituality, betrayal, and forgiveness, and Love is the only band member to be part of it each and every step. His own story has never been fully told, of how a sheet-metal apprentice became the quintessential front man for America's most successful rock band, singing in more than 5,600 concerts in 26 countries. Mike Love tells the story of his legendary, raucous, and ultimately triumphant five-decade career as the front man of the most popular American band in history. Hollywood Icons: Photographs from the John Kobal Foundation by Robert Dance A coffee table-style book features approximately 200 photographs of the classic film era. The collection includes the work of 12 photographers from Ted Allen to George Hurrell and Lazlo Willinger . Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Gloria Swanson and other luminaries of early silent film are depicted in splendid photographs revealing allure that is still obvious. Later silent stars such as Garbo and Crawford, are featured in series of images showing how those two star faces were magically transformed into thrilling exemplars of 1930s glamour. Great players from the 1930s whose names today form the bedrock of Hollywood history include all-American men such as Gary Cooper and Clark Gable. They shared the screen with sirens such as Marlene Dietrich and Hedy Lamarr. Legends such as Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall from the 1940s as well as Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly and others up to the early 1960s are shown. The book is a perfect addition to any Hollywoodophile’s collection. DH FALL 2016 / DISCOVER HOLLYWOOD 13

Hollywood Sign Built on Mt. Lee in 1923 for $21,000 as a temporary sign to promote Hollywoodland real estate development, the 50-foot-high letters were made of wood and with 20-watt bulbs around each letter. In the 70’s the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce spearheaded the campaign to rebuild the sign with support from a diverse group of people (including Playboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner, rock star Alice Cooper, cowboy Gene Autry and singer Andy Williams) each pledging $27,000 per letter for a new, all-metal landmark. Recently, a global fund raising campaign to preserve 138 acres adjacent to the world-famous sign reached its goal. Hugh Hefner, a key figure in the 1978 restoration effort, donated the last $900,000 of $12.5 million for city to purchase. www.hollywoodsign.org Hollywood Tower 6200 Franklin Ave. (855) 658-5708.

LACC

Los Angeles City College

he ground beneath the Los Angeles City College (LACC) is one of the most important historic sites for the growth of education in Los Angeles. e LACC ground began as farmland and grew with the burgeoning community eager to learn as a training school for teachers, to the early homes of both UCLA and Cal State Los Angeles before finally finding its place as the first community college in the city. Los Angeles City College opened its doors in 1929 and within the first semester was already the fourth largest institution in the country. e growth and success have not stopped as ongoing renovations and updated curriculums and opportunities continue to help an impressive list of alumni start and complete their educational path into the future. In the 1880’s, the City of Los Angeles population was little more than 11,000 people and higher education was one high school downtown and a Normal school for teacher education. e construction of the Pacific Electric Interurban Railroad in 1909 connected the crowded downtown Los Angeles with the

by Rachel Flanagan small suburb of farmland and horse and buggy traffic called Hollywood. e building atop Normal Hill, as locals referred to it, eventually became e Los Angeles Central Library while the doors to the relocated Normal School, built on farmland previously owned by Dennis Sullivan, opened in 1914 with nine brick buildings. One of its first buildings, the administration building, sits where Mr. Sullivan’s farmhouse used to reside. In 1917, due to the demand for its own local university, the LA Board of Education began lobbying the state and by 1919 their efforts were rewarded when a bill allowed the Normal School to become the southern branch of the University of California Berkeley. Students, however, were unable to get their degrees from this southern branch until 1925, thanks to the growing enrollment. By 1927, it became obvious that the University of California at Los Angeles or UCLA as it became known, had outgrown the Vermont Avenue location and relocation to the Westwood area began. In 1929, UCLA officially opened the doors at the new Westwood location, leaving

behind a campus that the LA Board of Education purchased for $700,000 that would soon become the first community college in the city of Los Angeles. Los Angeles Junior College, or as it is now known, Los Angeles City College or LACC, opened its doors on September 4, 1929, to 1,350 students. LACC’s president, former Hollywood High School Principal Dr. William Henry Snyder, handpicked each of the first 54 faculty members. e curriculum included civic health, engineering, general business, secretarial science and social arts. e college had an open door policy and did not charge tuition. is helped locals continue their college or vocational education whenever the economy was on a decline. During the Depression, with no money to go to University and jobs being unavailable, students would find themselves at LACC and enrollment continued to grow. As growth came, so did the opportunities. e college instituted programs including a mortuary curriculum and a nursery tending program as well as becoming the first west coast college to provide a full-scale

opera production training. LACC continued to help residents find hope in trying times. Enrollment took a dive during World War II and faculty had to look for jobs elsewhere. However, the school began offering evening classes and helped the war effort by providing courses for the military. After the war ended, LACC welcomed veterans under the G.I. Bill. Now, unlike previously when students came for vocational purposes, the veteran student body came to prepare for transferring to a University. In 1947, the college began a new experiment and formed a four-year school on campus called the Los Angeles State College of Applied Arts and Sciences. e hope was that this would provide a flexible vocational curriculum that could last from one to four years. ough an admirable idea, the experiment was cumbersome with two different schools on one campus and ended in 1955 when the four-year school moved east and became California State University at Los Angeles. In 1954, LACC received its first accreditation as a junior college. Continues

LACC continued

While the buildings had a construction overhaul, the school continued to make academic strides. In the 1950s, with Dr. John Lombardi as president, the school integrated with African American faculty and by the end of the 1960s, LACC was no longer a predominantly Caucasian school. With a growing number of students from other ethnicities, new occupational programs included dental assisting, occupational therapy, nuclear medicine, human services, and computer technology. By 1965, LACC’s library was the largest community college collection on any campus in the country with 115,872 volumes. In the 1970s, as immigrants continued to settle in Los Angeles, the college added more Englishas-a-second-language classes and hosted multicultural celebrations. In 1978, Dr. Stelle Feuers became the college’s first woman president and was the first of many to struggle with diminishing resources due to the changing economy. e 1980s and 90s were met with inadequate funding and by 1985, LACC as required to charge enrollment fees. e Los Angeles City College Foundation, established in 1968, continues to increase the educational opportunities available to students by managing existing funds and raising new funds for academic programs. It works to find resources for unfunded programs and financial changes that the school and students may endure. Most recently, a $10.1 million donation to LACC from the Herb Alpert Foundation makes studies for music majors tuition-free. As students continued to flourish, a $300 million construction bond helped LACC find its way into the millennium and the current ongoing construction project (including the student service building scheduled for completion in October) continues to meet the enrollment and curriculum needs of students. Growing technology and careers continue to inspire the curriculum. When Dr. William Henry Snyder was President in the inception of LACC, his mission for the college was two-fold: to provide career training coupled with general education fields that do not require a four-year university degree and offer the first two years of transfer. is mission is still largely met today with a curriculum inspired by the growing technology and career goals of potential students as well as the LACC STEM program supporting students who plan to transfer to a four-year University. Dennis Sullivan’s farm provided the land that has now supported over 100 years of inspiring educational beginnings, notable alumni, and innovative approaches to education. LACC opened its doors 87 years ago and has welcomed millions of students and faculty members willing and eager to take leaps and bounds in the education offerings that LACC has and will continue to offer in the historic Hollywood, California, where dreams of all kinds become reality.

Columbia Columbia Square Square Kilroy’s Columbia Square media campus helps lead Hollywood’s revitalization from the historic corner of Sunset and Gower

Y Y

ou might have heard “Happy Days Are Here Again!” echoing through the hallways of the Columbia Broadcast Studios in the ‘30’s and 40’s but the buildings have been silent for ten years. Those happy feelings are back again in a big way at the historic intersection of Sunset and Gower with the re-development of Columbia Square by the Kilroy Realty Corporation. Designed to resemble a modern campus, the newly LEEDGold certiﬁed project valued at $850 million is the largest development project in Hollywood with 675,000 square feet of oﬃce, retail and living space on 4.7 acres. e new Columbia Square 7building campus is already home to innovative companies from around the world with others set to move in by the end of the year. What is essentially a media village introduces unique

workspaces, collaborative indoor and outdoor environments, walkable shopping and a new standard of urban living. Open spaces with constructed tables and seating areas that feel conducive to doing business in a very open and relaxed atmosphere are everywhere. When walking between the buildings, structures provide inspiration with their modern but sweeping style. ere is even an open amphitheater located in the heart of the campus which can be used for tenant and events and casual music performances. Columbia Square delivers on the demand for a new class of creative office space in Hollywood where, as the brochure says, “ walls of glass let in light and inspiration, and balconies and decks make getting outdoors a breeze. Each building has unique character, from a sound stage-inspired studio to state-ofthe-art, dual-core architecture. Inside, open floor plates encourage companies to customize their spaces with workstations, conference rooms, edit bays, lounges, kitchens... whatever helps the creativity flow.” Accord- ing to Kilroy Executive VP David Simon, the company wanted to incorporate a whole new level of “mixed use”design, combining commercial, retail and residential space conducive to the

live-work lifestyle. Kilroy management had a distinctly Southern California/Hollywood-centric point of view in reshaping the property. Although they received entitlements for additional high-rise additions, they gave back 200,000 square feet and opted to forego a possible New York high-rise feel. Instead, with the removal of an adjunct studio building, they gained a much greater volume of open common space. e key to making it all work successfully though, was the addition of a 20-story residential tower with 200 furnished and unfurnished suites ideal for short and long-term stays. e Residences at Columbia Square feature ﬂoor to ceiling glass and 360 degrees of visibility including the ocean and Hollywood Sign. Originally designed in the style of International Modernism by architect William Lescaze, a pioneer of modernism in American architecture, the Columbia Square complex was home to CBS’s Los Angeles radio and television operations from 1938 until 2007. Stars such as Jack Benny and Orson Welles recorded their best-known work in the various studios. In 1950, the pilot episode of I Love Lucy was shot in Studio A. In the 1960s, Columbia Square’s live audience radio theaters were

converted to recording studios where Bob Dylan, Barbra Streisand and many other top stars recorded albums. Columbia Records dominated the airwaves in the 70’s and 80’s under the guidance of Clive Davis. As with many developments in Hollywood and Los Angeles, the whole city block could have easily been demolished and another landmark with much historic value would have been lost. Luckily though, in 2009, the Los Angeles Cultural Heritage Commission and the City Council designated CBS Columbia Square Studios as a historic-cultural monument through the efforts of The National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Los Angeles Conservancy. A focal point and big nod to the property’s history is in the public artwork created by Dustin Yellin, known for his sculptural paintings which use multiple layers of glass. At ﬁrst glance, the mysterious sculptures inside the 6 lifesized glass boxes look like human ﬁgures, but look more closely and you can see the “bodies” were constructed using bits and pieces of memorabilia found in the original Columbia recording and broadcast studios. The 90% currently leased occupancy rate is spearheaded by NeueHouse, Viacom and Fender plus anchor tenant restaurants Paley and Sugarfish, which are both housed in the 25,000 square feet of retail space facing Sunset Boulevard.

e Viacom lease is the largest signed in Hollywood in the last decade, said Simon. e deal seems to validate Kilroy’s strategy to turn the former CBS site into a live-work campus aimed at attracting entertainment, media, advertising and tech workers. e multi-media conglomerate is expected to have large graphics on the building that will be visible from long distances. According to real estate broker Carl Muhlstein of JLL who represented Kilroy, “ere hasn’t been a media tenant of this magnitude arriving in Hollywood since the Capitol Records tower” which was built in the mid-1950’s. The decision by one of the giants in the entertainment industry to relocate and consolidate some of its Cable television networks including MTV, Comedy Central, BET and Spike TV is a sign that Hollywood is reaching critical mass, said Muhlstein. David Simon added, “This is a bell-weather event for both Columbia Square and the ongoing rebirth of Hollywood.” According to Mr. Muhlstein, a new phenomenon is occurring where “Tenants are willing to travel across markets for the right space, which is very unusual in L.A.,” he said. “And (they) are paying attention to branding opportunities and what statement their real estate makes.”

Prior to Viacom, NeueHouse, a New York operator of avant-garde communal office space, agreed to lease 93,000 square feet in the original CBS office and studio complex. Their leased area includes a spectacular event space created in what was previously Studio A.

For this writer, the promise of long-term success occurred in front of NeueHouse when I spotted a group of casually-dressed folks walking with purpose across the campus and overheard, “at was a very productive meeting!” DH

BELOW: Outdoor spaces have a campus ambiance and seating for informal meetings and coffee breaks.

The ramifications of this type of successful major development are not lost on the city’s leaders, as illustrated by Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti’s statement: “Kilroy’s successful re-imagining of Columbia Square… is a sterling example of the surging investment happening in Hollywood and across L.A. Companies like Kilroy and Viacom are right at home here in our city of dreamers and doers.”

100

...and Still Counting

Centennial Celebrants

ne thing that L.A. is not known for is its prevalence of buildings and institutions that have achieved that rarified status of celebrating a centennial. Definitely not the first, but one of the most notable to recognize that milestone is the Los Feliz Improvement Association. Founded by William Mead in 2016, it has continuously kept a watchful eye on the community for 100 years. And it shows. It has gone from a rather staid upscale residential community called “Pill Hill” in the 70s because of its proximity to nearby hospitals and homes being sold to doctors to a trendsetting neighborhood populated with notables who appreciate its ambiance, beautiful homes and proximity to Griffith Park. Several homes in the Los Feliz area have reached 100, including the Mead estate, gutted back to its studs

He built his Harvard Boulevard home in 1907 after creating, with nephew Charles Toberman, the Hollywood Holding Co. That firm, following Toberman’s death in 1911, is credited with developing the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, Grauman's Chinese Theatre, the El Capitan Theatre and the Max Factor Building—all having a few years to go before their own centennials. However, Los Feliz and East Hollywood are relative newcomers compared to Hollywood which has several still standing remnants of the past. e historic Janes House, a Queen Anne era home, that once served as a school for children of Chaplin and DeMille conducted by the sisters Janes, formerly rested right on famed Hollywood Blvd. and has since been moved to the back of the property behind a newer shopping and restaurant complex.

Sadly many historic properRIGHT: ties have been lost but thanks to the Janes House work of Hollywood Heritage, one such home has been given a new lease on life. Toberman was mayor from 1872 to 1874 and from 1878 to 1882. He came to Los Angeles in 1864 when President Lincoln appointed him U.S. revenue assessor.

Housing Corporation, and now offices of two non-profits, was named a Historical Cultural Landmark in 2006. Build in 1904, it’s the last remaining residence of a bygone rancho era when U.S. Senator Cornelius Cole subdivided his property into smaller parcels sold off to gentleman (and women) farmers arriving to the southland from the Midwest. Another property attributed to Cole, is the Lombardi House, now an event site on Bronson just north of Hollywood Blvd., supposedly was used by Cole for his stables. Cole is responsible for the naming of 11 of Hollywood’s most noteworthy streets, including Vine Street which led to his vineyard

RIGHT: Lombardi House BELOW LEFT: Orchard Gables BELOW RIGHT: American Society of Cinematographers from his home at the southern end of his 500-acre property. Like many things “Hollywood,” the Magic Castle, formerly the Rowland Estate and the hilltop Yamashiro, now a restaurant, already celebrated their centennials before the turn of the last century and the other in 2013. Built to resemble a palace in Kyoto, Japan, by the brothers Bernheimer to house their Asian art collection, it’s famed for gorgeous sunset views at cocktail hour. Melding the old and the new, the home of American Society of Cinematographers, on Orange at Franklin is an outstanding example of Mission Revival architecture. e former residence built in 1905 has been the ﬁlmmakers clubhouse since the 30s. Who says that Los Angelenos don’t respect the past? In spite of some diﬃcult times in recent years, the venerable Hollywood Woman’s Club has rebounded with new leadership and a series of events designed to build up its membership. It could be said that there wouldn’t be a Hollywood Bowl without the Woman’s Club who was very

instrumental making sure there were plenty of cultural activities available in early Hollywood—especially music and theatre. eir “new” clubhouse on LaBrea built in the 40’s, still is a wonderful venue for weddings, recitals, and gatherings of all kinds. A little further west, Wattles Mansion, operated by the City of Los Angeles, is also a historic property oﬀered to Continues on page 60

Discover Hollywood Special Report by Oscar Arslanian

Oscar’s Hollywood

hat is the #1 Tourist Spot in the United States? Why the Hollywood Walk of Fame of course! According to Business Insider, the Walk of Fame is the most visited landmark ahead of such other icons as Mount Rushmore, the Lincoln Memorial and The Statue of Liberty. The Hollywood Walk of Fame is made up of over 2500 star-shaped pink terrazzo sidewalk paving stones honoring men, women and fictional characters who have made a significant contribution to film, television, radio, recording or live theatre. The Walk of Fame stretches over a mile of Hollywood Blvd. on both sides of the street from La Brea Avenue to Gower Street with extensions north and south along Vine Street from Yucca Street to Sunset Boulevard. And much of it needs attention and repair. The Hollywood Historic Trust whose mission is to maintain the Walk of Fame has been diligently repairing those parts in most need over the past few years. However, there is much more to be done and not enough funds to handle the job. Perhaps those who have Stars will step up and contribute to getting the job done sooner than later.

Why I Love Hollywood

“M

y love for Hollywood began about 80 years ago with my parents. My mother, a WWII survivor, grew up in the heavily bombed port city of Hamburg, Germany. When Mom saw her first MGM Hollywood musical, An American in Paris, she was filled with wonder, happiness, excitement and most important—hope. She hoped and dreamed the idea of living without the desperation of her childhood. That hope was Hollywood. Mom fell in love with the movies and the actors…she read all the Hollywood magazines she could and kept a Hollywood scrapbook. Mom dreamed she would one day live in Hollywood. The dream became reality when she crossed the Atlantic in a boat and landed in New York with about $100 in her purse. My father had the same love for Hollywood. As a child in Tehran, Iran, he would hang outside at the back of movie theatres waiting for the projectionist who would hand him precious film strips damaged in the projector. Dad would collect and trade these with other kids, just like the kids in the US would collect and trade baseball cards. Those film strips were his most valuable possession and he promised himself that one day he too would travel to America—-to Hollywood. Dad’s dream came true. He crossed the Atlantic and landed in New York with about $10 in his pocket…or so the story goes! Mom and Dad met in Sacramento, married and pursued their Hollywood dreams, moving to an apartment on Gower just below Sunset Boulevard. Mom worked at the May Company on Fairfax as a beautician and Dad was a waiter at Edna Earl’s Fog Cutter Restaurant on La Brea. My parents’ Hollywood love baby, me, was born shortly thereafter, at Kaiser Hospital on Sunset. My parents’ love for Hollywood was innately shared with me at birth as they told me their stories growing up about how and why they came to Hollywood. You see…Hollywood is a lot more than a place to many millions of people around the planet. As with my parents, Hollywood is a calling of dreams and hopes. As a Hollywoodian, I believe it is up to me to preserve the ideals of Hollywood and the place I call home, so the dreams and hopes for billions of people can continue to flourish. As a Hollywood Hotelier for the past 36 years and at the Hollywood Hotel for the past 23 years, I have hosted millions of guests from every country around the world who remind me daily why they come to this magical place we call Hollywood.

According to Wikipedia, the estate has been recognized as "the only remaining intact example of the once plentiful Hollywood estates from the period preceding the ﬁlm industry, when Hollywood was primarily agricultural and was a wintering home for wealthy Easterners and Midwesterners.
