USC To Receive Hollywood Star

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce will be presenting the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts with its own star on September 10, 2009.

Rather than locating the star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the star will be placed at the entrance to the Cinema School, which I photographed last week:


The School of Cinematic Arts was founded by Douglas Fairbanks Sr. in 1929.

The star is being presented to the school "on its 80th anniversary in recognition of its accomplishments in educating and encouraging its students to explore and expand the power and potential of film, television and interactive media."
