I worked there for two year from 1987-1989 under Jeff Little. He promoted to me supervisor / asst mgr within 6 months of starting there as an usher. It was my first job out of high school and I was blown away by that place. In 1988 I got a decent 35mm camera and took a number of photos of my co-workers/ friends at the time (some whom I am still in touch with this very day). I clearly remember the layout of that theatre and have fond memories of running the projector upstairs though I never touched the 70mm projector that they had in theatre 4. The projection booth was a giant “t-shape” room so you can easily move from one projector to another with no need of going through doors. I started working there af the 1987 Whittier quake and there was a crack in the ceiling above the candy booth in the center of the lobby that never got fixed.
