Beverly Glen Quotes

“When I left New York (in June 1942) I became the permanent guest of Margaret and Gilbert Neiman, at Beverly Glen, Los Angeles. My resources then were completely exhausted. The cabin at Beverly Glen, which is contiguous to Bel Air Estates-- the Gold Coast, so to speak-- was a delightful place. When the Neimans left for Colorado I shared the cabin with John Dudley of Kenosha. It was a bad period for me in many ways, relieved only by the itch to paint. To go to Hollywood and Vine from the Glen was like making a journey to Alaska. To shop, I went to Westwood Village or to Beverly Hills, usually on foot. Twice I was offered the gift of a car but refused. Finally, largely because Dudley was lazy, I bought one for forty dollars. It lasted ten days and then we left it in a ditch beside the road.”
