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.

but the chef is Mexican. We enjoyed the authentic south-of-the-border food dining in a colorful atmosphere with friendly people. The Valley Music Theatre got off to a good Start with Don Rickles and Lou Rawls. Like his hit, “A Natural Man,” Lou is! He naturally senses the world around him and responds in song. He closed with a rousing “Feeling Good” — and the audience was! *** Valleyites Marion and Francis Lederer, Monique and Paul Fisher, and Ann Fenner were in Western togs as they were going on to a hoe down. Gina Janss and Vickie Oakie unknowingly chose identical pants suits from Magnins. Vickie’s husband, Jack Oakie was in a baseball suit with cap but without bat. Needless to say, no one duplicated that outfit. *** The season has ended at the Greek Theatre. One of the last shows there was a double treat with Henry Mancini and Sergio Mendes & Brasil ’77. Following the concert, a black tie supper dance honoring the music men was hosted by James A. Doolittle in his Trousdale mansion. Norma Doolittle was ill. Ladies entering the bathroom were startled to see Jo Ann Pflug Standing on her head. She explained that’s her eure for a headache. Still in the Valley, Carole Mathews observed the first anniversary of Mathews Travel Agency with a swinging party at her Reseda home. Taking advantage of the warm fall weather, guests moved comfortably and constantly from the playroom to the gaily decorated pool area. Leon Arnes, with his charming wife, Chris, was sporting a beard. At 73, Leon is more in demand as an actor than ever. He just returned from filming “The Temper Tramp” in Alaska. Their daughter, Shelley was also there. She lost 40 pounds and looks sensational. Linda Christian was in the bathroom twirling her turban. She prefers them to wigs. You may recall Linda parlayed a small talent for acting into international acclaim as a femme fatale (Aly Khan, Errol Flynn and Baby Pignatari were among her conquests). Even though she received $1,000,000 from Tyrone Power, she made further demands on his estate. Her bid for Publicity when sympathy was with his expectant widow, Debbie, brought Linda the sobriquet — “Star of stage, screen and funerals.” *** . what*^ tove W8 doneföRyou laiely? sfayopen Mon.rhRUFRi.til7:00pm.
