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.

stuffed chicken breast with ham, veal and mushrooms or filet of Mignon Siciliano. An all-round treat for music lovers, and a bargain! Get your reservations in early. When you're over Sherman Oaks way, and have a yen for something hearty and tummy-filling for the entire family, don't forget the relaxed informality of Loren and Betty Crother's long-established The Chili Place at 13573 Ventura Blvd., right on the corner. Believe it or not, you are just as likely to rub elbows with your favorite celebrity as you are some hungry surfers coming in from the beach. Prices are right, sandwich combos and ever popular hamburgers-hotdogs are good and freshly prepared. The chili is excellent and, if you like yours mild — (they've got all three) hot, medium and mild. Enjoy a cool beer or two with the feast. What began as a fiasco turned out to be a most pleasant evening a Sunday or two ago when friends took us to Pasadena's Huntington Sheraton's first Luau of the season. This otherwise first-class hotel employed a maitre d' (or perhaps we shouldn't give him that distinction) who was endowed with all the diplomacy of a charging water buffalo. Some misinformation had been given over the phone to my host who was told to "come early to get good seats." This rude fellow in charge ran every early bird off, including a lady on crutches. This crass creature didn't even attempt to listen to any explanation about the error in info. However, our friend "Little Joe," top comic and singer from the Islands who played for all the Samoan, Tahitian and Hawaiian entertainment following the luau feast, and the beautiful hula dancer Lani McIntyre, plus Archie and the Islanders, soothed our ruffled feathers and we were purring when we said, "Aloha." They've raised the price from $8.50 inc tip and tax to $10 same deal, but it's still a great entertainment bargain. Adios, food 'n fun-pals 'til October. I guess by now, most everybody has heard about 1970 Holiday Magazine Awards to restaurants in this area. It is inconceivable to me, that, year after year, Holiday's Mr. Spitzer, can only find a few worthy of his attention. Surely, the hair-splitting is something else, too. For example, Perino's which has been honored for years, (and most deservedly) didn't receive the award this year, even though the same, fine restauranteur Perino, himself, is on deck with almost the same crew and chefs — could be they're nitpicking at Holiday because the "plebian" Esgro Co. purchased Perino's?
