Amid the Coronavirus Pandemic, Remember “Thanks for the Memory” Oscar-Winning
Back to Newsroom (/newsroom) Leo Robin Music Amid the Coronavirus Pandemic, Remember "Thanks for the Memory" Oscar-Winning Lyricist Leo Robin Who Served on The Hollywood Office of Music War Council During WWII - The Hollywood Walk of Fame Should Install #LeosLostStar" Awarded to Him 30 Years Ago Tuesday, April 28, 2020 3:18 PM SHERMAN OAKS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 28, 2020 / Turning on the radio back in 1944 you would have heard the most celebrated jazz musicians such as Louis Armstrong and Lionel Hampton and vocalists such as Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, Dinah Washington and actress Marlene Dietrich singing the wartime song "No Love, No Nothin'." Lyricist Leo Robin wrote the heartfelt lyrics to this song during World War II when romantic and sentimental songs about the girls left behind captured the mood of the country. In The Great Jazz and Pop Vocal Albums, Will Friedwald gives his interpretation, "this no-frills love song is refreshingly straightforward. No frills, no love, no nothin', in fact -- it's all about the deprivation of the 'love-sick girl' on the home front is suffering; [...] there's an obvious parallel with wartime rationing and shortages. It was near impossible to get sugar, rubber, tires, or gasoline, among other goods and the same thing applied to love, she's not getting any of that either." Today's songwriters and musicians amid the Coronavirus pandemic follow in the footsteps of those during World War II in writing and performing songs that capture the mood of the country during this new war against what President Trump calls the "invisible enemy." For example, Alicia Keys, a 15-time Grammy winner, debuted her new powerful anthem "Good Job" to honor the unsung heroes in her own life during a CNN global town hall addressing the latest developments in the Covid-19 pandemic.

East Los Angeles Should Not Be Lumped with the Hollywood Hills, Si
East Los Angeles Should Not Be Lumped with the Hollywood Hills, Si... Subject: East Los Angeles Should Not Be Lumped with the Hollywood Hills, Silver Lake, and Los Feliz! From: Franziska WiƩenstein < Date: Thu, 9 Jun 2011 10:47:52 -0700 To: Commissioners, CiƟzens RedistricƟng Commission 901 P Street, Suite 154-A Sacramento, CA 95814 Commissioners: When you Commissioners were picked, many of us in Los Angeles (and many in the media) were concerned that none of you lived in the City of Los Angeles. We were told not to worry, that you understood the region and would draw fair maps. We’ve also been told, throughout the process, that the era of odd-shaped, gerrymandered districts, featuring odd pairings of communiƟes, were over. Then, in your iniƟal draŌ maps, you proposed a district lumping together the Hollywood Hills, Los Feliz, Silver Lake, and East Los Angeles! To get there, the district lines cross the Los Angeles River and dart around Downtown Los Angeles, making the district as bizarrely shaped as anything the poliƟcians ever drew. It will be extremely diﬃcult for whomever is in elected in that district to represent those communiƟes. Those communiƟes are as diﬀerent as can be. We, the undersigned, strongly urge you to draw more sensible maps. East Los Angeles (and Lincoln Heights, etc.) should be together with other eastside communiƟes so that residents there can elect a repeƟƟve of their choosing. The communiƟes of Hollywood Hills, Los Feliz, and Silver Lake are not “eastside.” No porƟon of those communiƟes are east of Downtown or east of the Los Angeles River.

Ditch the L.A. Traffic in West Hollywood, the Tiny Town Best Explored on Foot
Ditch the L.A. Traffic in West Hollywood, the Tiny Town Best Explored on Foot They say nobody walks in Los Angeles. But tiny West Hollywood is a city that commonly forges its own path – a walkable one lined with iconic rock ‘n roll and comedy clubs, trendy shops with a twist and tastes for any kind of appetite. Rated as California’s most walkable city by Walk Score (with a 91/100 score), West Hollywood’s 1.9 square miles offer the most entertaining way to hit your step goals for the day, with a bonus for style goals. Here are some of the best ways to pound the pavement and see West Hollywood’s top highlights: HOOF IT The average person takes roughly 2,000 steps per mile, meaning it’s about 2,700 steps from the Sunset Tower Hotel to The Abbey; 2,800 steps from the Mondrian L.A. to the Troubadour; 2,000 steps from the Andaz West Hollywood to Michelin-starred Sushi Ginza Onodera; and 1,300 steps from the Sunset Marquis Hotel to the Whisky a Go Go. No matter which stylish WeHo hotel is your home away from home, you can get anywhere on foot – achieve your daily activity goals while stopping for shopping, a cocktail or two (you’re not driving, after all), some world-class cuisine and a late-night dancing sesh. GET YOUR WORKOUT ON Bikes and Hikes LA takes advantage of the glorious weather for active sightseeing. Rated the No. 1 outdoor activity in Los Angeles by TripAdvisor, the West Hollywood-based company is the starting point for a variety of tours including their signature tour, “LA in a Day” which takes bikers across 32 miles of Los Angeles in six hours, from West Hollywood’s Sunset Strip to Santa Monica Pier, and the Venice Canals to homes of the rich and famous.

USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2015
USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2015 December Wednesday, December 23, 2015 CBS News featured research presented by John Platt of USC Dornsife College to the American Geophysical Union that may explain mysterious fault lines. Platt said when two faults collide, they may merge like a zipper, instead of breaking past one another. "It may solve some long-standing and intractable problems concerning the timing and displacement on faults," he said. EdTech wrote about a $2.7 million U.S. Department of Education grant for a digital game project by Daphna Oyserman, Dean’s Professor of Psychology and professor of psychology, education and communication. Oyserman will work with the nonprofit McREL, game developer Filament Games, and the South Centeral Colorado Board of Cooperative Education Services to build and test the game based on Oyserman's "identity-based motivation" for teens. The Wall Street Journal ran an op-ed by Dan Schnur, director of the Jesse M. Unruh Institute of Politics, about Sen. Lindsey Graham's decision to end his presidential campaign. Tuesday, December 22, 2015 The Nation highlighted research by Manuel Pastor, Turpanjian Chair in Civil Society and Social Change and professor of sociology and American studies and ethnicity, and colleagues on the economic impact of Prop. 13 in California. If Prop. 13 was reformed so that commercial and industrial properties were taxed at market rate, the state could generate between $8.2-10.2 billion. Pastor noted that Prop. 13 affects younger Californians - who are predominantly non-white - more than older, more established residents. Daily Mail featured research by Margaret Gatz, professor of psychology, gerontology and preventive medicine, and Andrew Petkus, a postdoctoral researcher in psychology, along with colleagues finding that long-term anxiety can increase the risk for dementia.

View of Hollywood Sign to Be Protected
NEWS For Immediate Release Feb. 8, 2010 VIEW OF HOLLYWOOD SIGN TO BE PROTECTED LOS ANGELES, Feb. 8, 2010 – The view of the world-famous Hollywood Sign will be protected by purchasing Cahuenga Peak, the 138 acres behind and to the left of the sign which could have been developed into luxury homes, The Trust for Public Land (TPL) announced today. “With the support of donors such as The Tiffany & Co. Foundation, TPL and its partners are in a campaign to raise a total of $12.5 million by April 14,” said Sam Hodder, California State Director for TPL. After the purchase, which will cost $11.7 million, the land will be added to Griffith Park, the nation’s 4th-most-visited park. “The Hollywood Sign is one of America’s iconic views and that view would be ruined forever if estates are built behind it,” said Hodder, as he and TPL’s partners announced a two-month campaign to raise the remaining $6.2 million needed to complete the purchase from a group of Chicago investors. TPL’s exclusive option to buy Cahuenga Peak expires April 14. If the funds aren’t raised to protect it, the property will go back for sale on the open market (For details, visit www.savehollywoodland.org) Some of Hollywood’s biggest stars have also agreed to lend their support to the campaign including Julia Louis-Dreyfus (New Adventures of Old Christine), Academy Award Nominated Actress Virginia Madsen, Tippi Hedren, John Slattery (Mad Men), Aisha Tyler (FOX’s 24), Julian McMahon (FX’s Nip/Tuck), James Kyson Lee (Heroes), Beau Garrett (Fantastic Four) and Katherine Morris (CBS’s Cold Case).

Hollywood Hills
Celebrity Homes Map Hollywood Hills Guide to Stars in Hollywood Hills ・ 60 Addresses The information contained in this document is exclusive property of StarMap, Inc. You agree that the service StarMap® provides is for informational purposes only and is subject to the Terms & Conditions. Welcome to the Hollywood Hills. If you are coming here to explore the nature of humanity at it’s most upscale, pristine and creative form, you have come to the right place. There are two unique qualities that make Hollywood Hills such a desired destination for celebrities and tourists alike; the terrain and of course the Stars that inhabit the region. The Hollywood Hills are the part of the Santa Monica Mountains, which makes them incredibly, well, hilly. Hills as we know aren’t flat, so they are difficult to build on. This creates for some creative and unique architectural opportunities for folks with dreams, ambition and money; the resources that come in abundance in this area. The Hollywood Hills isn’t your typical neighborhood, you won’t find two houses alike in this region. You won’t find apartment complexes, condo units and other standardized living in this area. Due to the diversity of land formations, each home is different from the next. The diversity of the twenty some odd thousand people that live in this 7 square mile is quite diverse as well. Not everyone that lives in The Hills is a television star or otherwise even some one that’s known. However, reading down the list of notable residents is like reading a list of the Golden Globes nominations — the stars that you’ve grown to love over a lifetime more than likely own a residence here.
