Spectacular Illumination: Neon Los Angeles 1925-1965
At the young age of 22 actress Nancy Olson had the great fortune of being cast in the ingenue role in a film starring William Holden, Gloria Swanson and Erich Von Stroheim. That motion picture was the epic Sunset Boulevard. For this picture she was nominated for an Academy Award. The film Sunset Boulevard has always been near and dear to the residents of Windsor Square and Hancock Park since it was filmed in a mansion once located at the intersection of Crenshaw and Wilshire Boulevard.
