Dominguez Rancho\, which encompasses much of present day cities of Torran

1920s\, Patrick Watson & his wife\, Miss Mamie O’Farrell of San Francisco\
, were looking to move off of the original Rancho property and decided to
build a new home for themselves in the fashionable and developing area of
Hancock Park.\nPatrick hired the notable Architectural firm of Hunt & Burn
s to design his new family estate on a large double access lot located on
a prominent corner in the new district of Hancock Park. During their tenu
re together\, Sumner P. Hunt and Silas R. Burns built some of the most bea
utiful buildings in the Los Angeles area including: Automobile Club of So

ion for building some of the grandest homes and public buildings in Los An

Johnson\nPlease join us WEDNESDAY August 25th\, 7:00 PM\n\n\n\nIt’s 1938
and women seeking a quick\, no-questions split from their husbands head to
the “divorce capital of the world\,” Reno\, Nevada. There’s one catch: th
ey have to wait six weeks to become “residents.” Many of these wealthy\, s
oon-to-be divorcees flock to the Flying Leap\, a dude ranch that caters to
their every need.\nTwenty-four-year-old Ward spent one year at Yale befor
e his family lost everything in the Great Depression\; now he’s earning an
honest living as a ranch hand at the Flying Leap. Admired for his dashing
good looks—“Cary Grant in cowboy boots”—Ward thinks he’s got the Flying L
eap’s clients all figured out. But two new guests are about to upend every
thing he thinks he knows: Nina\, a St Louis heiress and amateur pilot back
for her third divorce\, and Emily\, whose bravest moment in life was leav
ing her cheating husband back in San Francisco and driving herself to Reno
.\nA novel about divorce\, marriage\, and everything that comes in between
(money\, class\, ambition\, and opportunity)\, Better Luck Next Time is a
hilarious yet poignant examination of the ways friendship can save us\, l
ove can destroy us\, and the family we create can be stronger than the fam

\n
It’s 1938 and women seeking a quick\, no-questi
ons split from their husbands head to the “divorce capital of the world\,”
Reno\, Nevada. There’s one catch: they have to wait six weeks to become “
residents.” Many of these wealthy\, soon-to-be divorcees flock to the Flyi
ng Leap\, a dude ranch that caters to their every need.
\n
Twenty-fou
r-year-old Ward spent one year at Yale before his family lost everything i
n the Great Depression\; now he’s earning an honest living as a ranch hand
at the Flying Leap. Admired for his dashing good looks—“Cary Grant in cow
boy boots”—Ward thinks he’s got the Flying Leap’s clients all figured out.
But two new guests are about to upend everything he thinks he knows: Nina
\, a St Louis heiress and amateur pilot back for her third divorce\, and E
mily\, whose bravest moment in life was leaving her cheating husband back
in San Francisco and driving herself to Reno.
\n
A novel about divorc
e\, marriage\, and everything that comes in between (money\, class\, ambit
ion\, and opportunity)\, Better Luck Next Time is a hilarious yet
poignant examination of the ways friendship can save us\, love can destro
y us\, and the family we create can be stronger than the family we come fr
om.

the showmanship demonstrated by the Hollywood designers in order to compe

ed was Adrian of M-G-M. It was a logical choice as Adrian’s design for Joa

early as 1928\, Adrian did not enter the commercial fashion world until 1
942\, after leaving M-G-M\, but taking his fame with him. In 1944 he would
win the prestigious Coty Award for fashion design. One of the reasons he
did so was his innovative Trompe l’oiel painted imagery on fabric\, a tast
eful solution to the L-85 fabric restrictions of World War II. So proud of
the award was Adrian that he added the line “American Designer” to all hi
s advertisements in the prestigious fashion magazines.\nBy 1952\, he had a
chieved all his dreams. He was famous\, successful\, married to a lovely w
oman\, movie star Janet Gaynor\, father to a son\, Robin\, had traveled to
Africa\, and was working happily in fashion\, theatre\, and fine art. Unf
ortunately\, a weak heart demanded he give up his fashion business. His “r
etirement” however\, was hardly inactive.\nAttendance at a film festival i
n Brazil in 1952 led the Adrians to build – by hand – a home outside the n
ew capital of Brasilia. They spent half their year in Brazil and half in L
os Angeles. Janet made a return to movies in 1957\, and Adrian designed hi
s first stage production since 1924\, a musical version of his film hit “G
rand Hotel”. Dual offers came to Janet and Adrian to continue theatrical w
ork\, her to star in “Midnight Sun” with Arthur Hill\, and for Adrian to d
esign for the musical which became “Camelot” and for which he was awarded
a posthumous Tony Award\, shared with Tony Duquette\, who completed the pr
oduction after Adrian suddenly died three months into the assignment.\nThe
nostalgia boom began just a few years after Adrian’s passing\, but the su
rviving pieces of his film work were soon commanding high prices at auctio
ns\, with the Judy Garland-worn ruby slippers becoming the most valuable o
f all movie artifacts. Also\, his couturier work began to be presented in
museum exhibitions all over the world.\nAccording to their son\, Robin\, n
either Janet nor Adrian dwelt in the past. He would probably be a little s
urprised at the attention his work still receives\, but would nonetheless
be pleased about it\, I’m sure.\nI have studied Adrian and his work for th
e last two decades\, with the result being my book\, “Adrian – American De
signer\, Hollywood Original” and I am pleased to be able to share new info
rmation with those familiar with his work and to introduce him to new audi
ences who know the designer\, but not as much about the man.

BER 27TH\, 7:00 PM\n\n\n\nHaving been approached by many guests\, patrons\
, and employees over the years\, Keith has heard it all. “Two tourists wal
ked up to me and asked how they could get inside the mansion for the tour.
When I told them the interior is closed to the public one replied\, ‘Oh\,
because we saw a man in period clothing staring out the window and we tho
ught he was part of the tour.’” This marks just one encounter of 237 paran
ormal stories documented at Greystone Mansion. Keith spent nearly three ye
ars researching the supernatural activity at the estate. With 86 interview
s\, including guests of the park\, City staff\, police officers\, movie cr
ew personnel\, and janitorial services\, Ghosts of Greystone – Beverly Hil
ls promises you a riveting history and ghostly encounters. For more than t
wo decades\, the mystery surrounding the strange events taking place in an
d around Greystone Mansion has been suppressed\, ignored\, and disbelieved
. Along with rare photographs and intriguing details about the landscape a
nd architecture\, Keith delves into the family of Ned and Lucy Doheny\, in
cluding the fateful murder/suicide on the night of February 16\, 1929\, an
d other unfortunate deaths that surround these enigmatic grounds that may
have stoked the paranormal fire of activity. “People from all over the wor
ld come to visit this iconic location. They want to peek behind the curtai
n and observe this ghostly estate for themselves. Ghosts of Greystone – Be
verly Hills will allow them to do just that.”

GHOSTS OF GREYSTONE – BEVER
LY HILLS
\n
with author Clete Keith
\n
Please join us WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 27TH\, 7:00 PM
\n
\n\n
\n
Having been approached by many gu
ests\, patrons\, and employees over the years\, Keith has heard it all. “T
wo tourists walked up to me and asked how they could get inside the mansio
n for the tour. When I told them the interior is closed to the public one
replied\, ‘Oh\, because we saw a man in period clothing staring out the wi
ndow and we thought he was part of the tour.’” This marks just one encount
er of 237 paranormal stories documented at Greystone Mansion. Keith spent
nearly three years researching the supernatural activity at the estate. Wi
th 86 interviews\, including guests of the park\, City staff\, police offi
cers\, movie crew personnel\, and janitorial services\, Ghosts of Greyston
e – Beverly Hills promises you a riveting history and ghostly encounters.
For more than two decades\, the mystery surrounding the strange events tak
ing place in and around Greystone Mansion has been suppressed\, ignored\,
and disbelieved. Along with rare photographs and intriguing details about
the landscape and architecture\, Keith delves into the family of Ned and L
ucy Doheny\, including the fateful murder/suicide on the night of February
16\, 1929\, and other unfortunate deaths that surround these enigmatic gr
ounds that may have stoked the paranormal fire of activity. “People from a
ll over the world come to visit this iconic location. They want to peek be
hind the curtain and observe this ghostly estate for themselves. Ghosts of
Greystone – Beverly Hills will allow them to do just that.”

ath\, retained Morgan to design what would become the biggest and most fam
ous project of her career\, Hearst Castle.
