You know, for years the widow of Harry Houdini held a séance on the roof of the Knickerbocker, on his birthday, thinking he'd speak from the great beyond. He didn't.  D. W. Griffith died of a massive heart attack in the lobby of the Knickerbocker. Elvis stayed here when he first came to Hollywood, to film Jailhouse Rock. On a rainy day it's the haunted house.

If you wish to use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me. And should you choose to download any of these images and use them invoking the "fair use" provisions of the Copyright Act of 1976, please provide credit, and, on the web, a link back to this site.

Technical Note:

These photographs were taken with a Nikon D200 – the lenses used were AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or AF Nikkor 70-300 mm telephoto.  The high-resolution photography here was modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software.
