Description:
Hollywood Studio Magazine was published out of the San Fernando Valley in various iterations (and various titles) from 1966 until 1992. What started as a local organ aimed at the workers of Hollywood ended as a nostalgic fan magazine about Hollywood Then and Now. The various title changes and revisions to its mission reflect not just the economic realities of magazine publishing, but a changing relationship to Hollywood and the industry itself. The earliest issues of Studio Magazine read like a house organ of a steady, entrenched industry documenting the comings and goings and notable events of the San Fernando Valley, with special emphasis on Universal. Fandom first became part of the discourse of the magazine through collecting. The Collectors’ Column page beginning in the early 1970s allowed memorabilia collectors to advertise their wares to each other. In 1983, the founder of the magazine, Dorothy Denny gave over the reins to Ralph Benner, the founder of Tiger Beat. This marks the clear separation between the original publication and its focus on Hollywood production culture and the move toward a publication centered on star narratives and fan culture. In covering the two and a half decades from the collapse of the system to the point where classical movie stars were phantoms instead of living people, the magazine offers insight into the transformation of old Hollywood from a lived reality to a memory to a myth.

Durango, Mexico: Marian McCargo Moses, John Wayne’s light of love in 20th Century-Fox’s “The Undefeated” shooting here, honestly believes that a persons inner thoughts — particularly the baser ones - show in the face, although not necessarily permanently. “Today I have the face of a glutton,” she said recently. “Last night I was ravished by a chocolate fudge cake. I knew I shouldn’t eat it. Didn’t want to, but I did. Today the sin of gluttony shows on my face. I’m glad I have no close-ups in the picture today.” Wayne protested that he could see nothing of the drooling glutton in the NEWS FROM GOWER GULCH Continued co-founder of Columbia Pictures. Mrs. Cohn died in her sleep April 16th of natural causes. She had been a long-time resident of New York and had recently moved to California. NOW IT CAN BE TOLD DEPARTMENT - The Columbia-Screen Gems Studio Club’s annual Spring Fling, which I duly reported a smashing success last month, was even more successful than I had anticipated! (You guessed it. My publisher jumped publication date on me and the event was still in the offing at particularly fresh-faced blonde star. “I have a good eye for afor a hangover and perhaps certain other ills, but you seem much the same as other days and I must say that is very good viewing, indeed.” But Miss Moses persisted and claimed that her nose was longer, although perhaps only fractionally, “the better to sniff food.” Nobody else could see it. “Well,” Wayne asked, “what kind of thoughts are you going to have to condition you for our love scenes.” “Oh, none at all,” Miss Moses replied sweetly. “The gentleman always determines that.” deadline.) At any rate, writer Jim Henerson whipped up the kookiest little melodrama you ever saw, complete with olio acts. A parody on the merger of Columbia and Screen Gems, it was co-produced and directed by Jerry Bernstein and Joe Goodson and starred Sonya Christensen as Miss Columbia, Seymour Yack as Trueblood B. Screen Gems and Jon Anderson as the arch villain, Conglomero. Many more contributed but space does not permit mention of all the credits. Suffice it to say — it was indeed a smash.
