Building History
The actor Adolphe J. Menjou (born 02/18/1890 in Pittsburgh, PA-d. 10/29/1963 in Beverly Hills, CA) resided at 722 North Bedford Drive in 1952. He was a registered Republican who voted for a slate of CA delegates to the national convention that backeed Rep. Thomas H. Werdell (1905-1966) (who favored the very conservative Robert A. Taft [1889-1953] for President), rather than the slate headed by the more liberal Gov. Earl Warren (1891-1974). (See "Legal Notice: Notice of Election," Santa Barbara News-Press, 05/16/1952, pt. B, p. 8.)
