‘DeMille Barn’ Now Hollywood Museum
From Times Wire Services
Actor Charlton Heston joined government officials in the opening of a new museum--a nearly century-old barn used by Cecil B. DeMille to make Hollywood’s first feature-length film.
The “DeMille Barn†was built on Vine Street in 1888 to store supplies and wagons for the tiny farm community that later became Hollywood. The barn was rented by DeMille in 1913 to film “The Squaw Man.â€
It has been moved to Highland Avenue across from the Hollywood Bowl and will be open Saturdays and Sundays.
