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.

Bartlett proved to be a brave man by inviting two of his former wives, Louis Butler and Ana Maria Alba. But his soon to be ex, Rhonda Fleming, wasn’t there. Hall isn’t brave enough for that. Tony Quinn’s life has been even more exciting than that of the hero of Oscar Lewis’ book whom he will portray. Quinn was born in a hail of bullets in Chihuahua, Mexico at the height of the Mexican Revolution in 1915. His mother smuggled him out of Mexico (“I was hidden in a wagon under a pile of coal and nearly choked to death”) to Los Angeles. Poverty stricken, he worked from earliest childhood as a butcher’s assistant, cement mixer, in a mattress factory, as a taxi driver, cutter of women’s dresses, and a boxer before breaking into pictures in 1936. He married the boss’ daughter, Katherine deMille, had four children, and became one of the world’s greatest character actors. Eight years ago, while still married, he admitted publicly that he was the father of a baby boy by an Italian woman. With Quinn at the party was the “Italian woman” whom he married after obtaining a divorce. Making it an unusual family scene, two of his daughters by Katherine were with him and Yolanda. Dick Cavett’s television interview with Bette Davis had to be the most candid in the history of the talk show. The outspoken actress even told about losing her virginity. What frankness, Bette . . . and what a memory! *** FINGER PRINTING SERVICE LOYA AND ASSOCIATES me "INCOME TAX "INSURANCE "REAL ESTATE "NOTARY SE HABLA ESPANOL ESTABLISHED 1960 1301 W.
