Basking in the Memory of Those Los Feliz Wonder Years

Thank you, Jessica Gelt, for the mention of Los Feliz (“The Lush Land of Los Feliz,” A Day In, March 4). I get very nostalgic when reading about the area where I grew up. It was then oftentimes called “Pill Hill” because of the doctors living there, and there were also Disney animators, celebrities, etc.

It was the perfect place to grow up. I rode my horse in Griffith Park, walked to school, dined at the Brown Derby, the Los Feliz Inn and, of course, the Dresden. I saw many performances at the Greek Theatre. The views were to Mt. Baldy and to the ocean, and one could easily commute to USC, where I went to college. Living in L.A. was wonderful!
