The Beverly Hills Hotel
September 10th, 2013
The Beverly Hills Hotel has hosted all of Hollywood in it’s 100 year history. From Marilyn Monroe to the Beatles the famous pink and green hotel has always been at the center of Hollywood life. For me it’s the famous pool where my favorite part of the hotels history was captured.
In the spring of 1977 photographer Terry O Neill captured Faye Dunaway taking the Beverly Hills Hotel breakfast by the pool in “dazed confusion”, the morning after winning her Oscar for best actress. With a pot of English tea on the table, (along side her Oscar) the photo has the perfect mix of Hollywood Glamor and old school charm that the Beverly Hills Hotel is so famous for.
