Series 4Ambassador Hotel Book 1923-2005Series 4 Ambassador Hotel Book 1923-2005Physical Description: 14 boxesScope and Content NoteBuilding on her career at, and love for, the Ambassador Hotel, Margaret Tante Burk wrote abook entitled Are the Stars Out Tonight? The Story of the Famous Ambassador and CocoanutGrove Hollywood's Hotel. The book was published in 1980 but by 1995 was out of print; in2003 another run of the book was printed. Besides treating the history of the hotel and theCocoanut Grove, the book is well illustrated with invaluable photographs of celebrities andpersonages who lived, dined and danced, and entertained at the Ambassador and theCocoanut Grove. In short it captures the spirit of a bastion of the golden age of Hollywoodfrom the 1920s through the 1950s.This series consists of the subject files that Margaret Tante Burk relied on to write her book.The titles that Margaret Tante Burk assigned to the folders are found in parentheses at thebeginning of the "Contents" field. The original order of the folders was not discernible; thus,the arrangement in the box and folder list does not reflect this. The Ambassador Hotel andthe Cocoanut Grove had no archives, so these are materials that Margaret Tante Burkgathered during the course of her research on the hotel and night club. They consist ofnewspaper clippings; Margaret Tante Burk's personal notes on her research and writing;correspondence; photographs and negatives; hotel and Cocoanut Grove records, such asbookings, press releases, and call sheets for films shot at the hotel; and hotel brochures(often photocopies). Also included are records of the production, sales, and promotion of thebook. Because Stars was printed under the auspices of the Round Table West, the notablebook club that Margaret Tante Burk co-founded, there is some material from the clubintermixed with this series.Series 6: Personal and Professional Papers contains some material on the Ambassador Hotelin the form of correspondence that was mixed in with her personal correspondence.Box 1 : 1(Ambassador Hotel Releases) Newspaper articles, press releases re hotel logo,management, re-opening of Cocoanut Grove 1967, 1969-1974Box 1 : 2(Ambassador Photos) List of numbered photographs. 9 black and white photographsof stars at Cocoanut Grove and Hotel undatedBox 1 : 3(Bill Banks Photos) 6 contact sheets, with Glenn Campbell. 1 black and whitephotograph undatedBox 1 : 4(Cocoanut Grove) Black and white, color photographs of Grove at all stages ofhistory; interior and exterior. 1938-1970 (dates broken)Box 1 : 5(Amb.(bassador) Historical Data) Newspaper clippings, photocopy of promotionalbrochure re Ambassador Hotel 1923-1970 (dates broken)Box 1 : 6(Hotels, Misc) Newspaper clippings re Southern California hotels 1974-1978 (datesbroken)Box 1 : 7(Frisco Mari) Newspaper clippings, photographs, personal notes re Ambassador Hotelgardener Frisco Mari 1971, 1974Box 1 : 8 (House Officer's Report) Reports of hotel detective 1964, 1974Box 1 : 9(M.G.M) Black and white photographs, negatives of Ambassador Hotel bars and setof The Buccaneer. undatedBox 1 : 10 (Carmel Myers) Newspaper clippings re actress Carmel Myers 1975Box 1 : 11 (Mann Notes) Articles by May Mann.

5Photographs 1921-2008Subseries A.Personages and Celebrities 1923-19895 Photographs 1921-2008Physical Description: 10 boxes, 3 oversize boxes, 4 items in one map case drawerScope and Content NoteSeries 5 consists of photographs, negatives, and color transparencies of the AmbassadorHotel and the Cocoanut Grove that Margaret Tante Burk collected over her long associationwith these businesses. The photographs are both black and white and color, and range insize from 3x5 color polaroids to panoramic black and white photographs. Professionalphotographers such as Darlene Hammond and Irv Antler were responsible for thephotographs; besides professional photographers, many of the photographs are personal,shot by such persons as Margaret Tante Burk herself. Loyola Marymount University does notassume copyright responsibility for these photographs or other images and will notreproduce them.This series has been arranged into two subseries. Subseries A contains photographs ofcelebrities and personages at the Hotel or the Cocoanut Grove, as well as publicity stills ofcelebrities with whom Margaret Tante Burk had personal or professional contact. In thisseries, such movie stars as Paul Newman and Judy Garland and Humphrey Bogart can beseen at the Cocoanut Grove or entertainers such as Ray Charles and the Andrews Sistersperforming at the nightclub.The photographs of Subseries A are particularly valuable for the documentation that theyprovide of events involving celebrities and personages at the Hotel and Grove, such astelevision specials taped there or press conferences; an example of the former is a Muppetstelevision special (1979), that of the latter a press conference of South Vietnamese VicePresident Nguyen Cao Ky at the height of the Vietnam War in the 1960s.Subseries B contains photographs and transparencies of the grounds, buildings, and facilitiesof the Ambassador Hotel as well as events held at the Hotel. Photographs of the facilitiesand rooms of the hotel include its bungalows, courtyards and gardens, rooms, swimmingpool, and dining rooms, such as the Venetian Room. The chronological span of thephotographs of the layout and grounds of the Hotel reaches from the 1920s to the 1980s,thereby providing an excellent overview of what a luxury hotel looked like in Los Angelesover the course of the twentieth century. In particular the photographs of the Hotel made inthe 1940s by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (cf. Box 3) document in detail the facilities andoperations of a luxury hotel.The photographs of this series also richly document the Cocoanut Grove, the world-famousnightclub that was part of the Ambassador Hotel. These photographs include the interior andexterior of the Grove in its first manifestation from 1921 to 1957, the year of its firstremodel, and then its renovation in the early 1970s by Sammy Davis, Jr., among others.This subseries also documents hotel activities, such as employee awards or managerial staffon the job at the Ambassador Hotel.Subseries A.
