Harold Greene, Longtime Los Angeles TV News Anchor, Dies at 83

Harold Greene, longtime Los Angeles TV news anchor known for his long tenures at ABC and CBS O&O stations and believed to be an inspiration for Will Ferrell’s Ron Burgundy in 2004’s “Anchorman,” has died. He was 82. Former KABC and KCBS News Anchor Harold Greene Dies at 82 Greene died on Nov. 3, his daughter Courtney Greene confirmed in a Facebook post. The polished broadcaster who sported a signature wavy reddish-brown hair style was a staple of Los Angeles’ TV news scene for more than 25 years. He anchored prime late-afternoon newscasts on KABC-TV Los Angeles alongside Ann Martin from 1982 to 2000. The following year, Greene moved to KCBS and KCAL Los Angeles (now CBS Los Angeles) for a seven-year hitch serving as a news anchor for both CBS-owned stations in the nation’s second-largest TV market. “We have a feeling he’s already settling into the great newsroom in the sky, no doubt with a few suggestions on how things should be run,” Greene wrote. Harold Greene got his start in San Diego in 1973 at KCST-TV. He then shifted to a rival San Diego TV station KGTV, where he was paired in a newscast with anchor Jack White

Chateau Alto Nido: Hollywood's Hilltop Survivor and Its Place in Sunset Boulevard

Hollywood is absolutely masterful at filming its own history while the places where that history took place disappear. Mansions get torn down; larger developments replace apartment buildings and the streets themselves are pretty much unrecognizable. Yet at 1851 North Ivar Avenue, looking out over Franklin Avenue, one of Hollywood's most distinctive residential properties has survived for nearly one hundred years. Chateau Alto Nido with its red tile roof, pale stucco walls, arched openings and wrought iron balconies is a very real physical manifestation of the astonishing transformation of the area during the early days of the talking picture.
