We’re sad to announce the recent passing of Jerome Daniel, originally a Chicago native who moved to Los Angeles and, like so many of us, fell under the enchantment of our local Santa Monica Mountains and its many treasures large and small.
Daniel was a key figure in planning the Mulholland Scenic Parkway (where an overlook above the Hollywood Bowl is named in his honor), and went on to chair the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy, where he oversaw the preservation of some 50,000 acres of parkland.
