Summary[edit]

Description
English: Exterior view of the B'nai B'rith Temple on Hope Street and Ninth Street in Los Angeles, ca.1902
  • The tall, three-story temple is shown at center, onion domes topping the vented towers to either side of the three doors of its entrance. In front, lumber is visible in piles.
  • The roads in the foreground are dirt. On the corner of the sidewalk, a tall pole terminates in a lookout cradle, or crow's nest.
"The great researcher, Mae Brussell, grew up in the shadow of her father, Rabbi Edgar F. Magnin. Rabbi Magnin joined the staff of the Temple B'nai B'rith in Los Angeles in 1915 and became its senior rabbi in 1919. He remained in that position until his death on July 17, 1984.
In 1929 the Temple moved to 3663 Wilshire Boulevard and became known as The Wilshire Boulevard Temple. Two years before his death this temple was dedicated to Robbi Magnin. He was often called the "Rabbi to the stars" because of his close association with the Hollywood community. When the Rabbi died, Mae Brussell added many of her father's files and books to her massive collection. Rabbi Magnin's file contents are a window into the years before the world found itself engulfed in the terror of World War II." -- unknown author.
