The Hollywood Walk of Fame was
originally conceived in the 1950s by the
Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to
promote Hollywood. Since its
installation in 1960, the Walk of Fame
has been a superior asset to the
community, perpetuating the aura that
has made the name Hollywood
synonymous with glamour. The Walk
of Fame remains one of the city’s most
widely-seen tourist venues and the
number one attraction in Hollywood.
More than two thousand stars,
totaling five acres of coral terrazzo and
brass, line the sidewalks on both sides
of Hollywood Boulevard, from Gower
to La Brea, and Vine Street. Stars
inducted in 2006 included: Queen
Latifah, Matthew Broderick, Nathan
Lane, Motley Crue, Robert Osborne,
Mark & Kim, Judge Judy Sheindlin,
Destiny’s Child, George Lopez, Lou
Adler, Winnie The Pooh, Vanna White,
Dan Avey, Jim Hill, Nancy Sinatra,
Wink Martindale, David Milch, Stella
Adler, Leonard Goldenson, Milt and
Bill Larsen, Amy Grant, Bob Miller,
Ruta Lee, Bruce Willis, Tim McGraw,
Jerry Buss, and Annette Bening.
New stars continue to be dedicated

at the rate of about two each month,
with ceremonies drawing crowds of
admiring fans to share the moments
with their favorite stars. Presiding over
the ceremonies is Hollywood’s celebrity
mayor Johnny Grant. Walk of Fame
ceremonies, administered by the
Hollywood Chamber of Commerce,
attract international television coverage
and are responsible for bringing
millions of tourists to Tinseltown
annually to see its world-famous Walk.
Can anyone imagine what
Hollywood would be like without the
Walk of Fame?

Baja Fresh
Baja Fresh isn’t your typical Mexican
Restaurant. They like to keep it simple —
fresh ingredients, expert preparation, clean
cheerful surroundings, genuine smiles,
value for the dollar, and prompt courteous
service. As you walk into a Baja Fresh
you’re immediately surrounded by
delicious fresh aromas of grilled meats and
spicy vegetables, with festive music in the
background. They prepare delicious dishes
right before your eyes — but not before
you order them. Baja Fresh is very picky in
how they prepare their food. They buy the
best tomatoes, onions, peppers, and spices,
making their salsas fresh every day. They
crush only the finest, ripest avocados for
their guacamole in small batches all day
long to ensure freshness. They use only the
white meat of the chicken and trim all of
the fat from select cuts of skirt steak. They
marinate and charbroil these delicacies to
absolute perfection to provide their

customers with fare that not only makes
their mouth water, but is also wholesome
food. Baja Fresh also caters to today’s
active lifestyles by making everything on
the menu available for takeout.
