Actually, you really should know the name Robert Evans because he is a legend.  He was also married to Ali MacGraw but even more famous than all of these things is his house, Woodland, in Beverly Hills.  <a href="http://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/27/domesticities-at-home-with-robert-evans/"><span style="color: #b45f06;">The New York Times</span></a> has just published a story about the home in T magazine.  I knew it looked familiar and I finally remembered that Matt Trynauer had written a very interesting article, <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/style/features/2009/03/john-woolf200903"><span style="color: #b45f06;">Glamour Begins at Home</span></a>,  for Vanity Fair about the architect, <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/style/features/2009/03/john-woolf200903"><span style="color: #b45f06;">John Woolf</span></a>.  It was built in 1941 for interior designer James Pendleton and is considered a masterpiece.  The style became known as Hollywood Regency and John Woolf's life story is almost as interesting as that of Robert Evans. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: left;">"Nature couldn't be improved on when it came to the garden's prize.  Standing among the over two thousand rosebushes was an enormous spreading sycamore, several centuries old, with branches covering half an acre.  Anything that's been breathing that long needs lots of help.  For the circumference of the half acre, every three feet the roots are intravenously fed.  Many a time I've given it an anxious look: 'You're one hell of an expensive lady.' But it's more than a tree - it's a piece of art.  I'd take a night job to keep its leaves aglow.  Twenty-one weddings have been blessed under its far reaching branches.  I'm sure its batting an average higher than any alter in the world.  Nineteen for twenty-one.  Not bad huh? Only two have failed - <em>mine</em>."</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguhJc5QX3WexueS7leEyY1_Z2r-LH8okwJFW4aDEczsoTFXeuwk7-NYVhhMgjBvXlB5Dk9WF8vEIKv6gZTY3Na3ULfdkH0_w7rN8Pa0yEi9cnYwRwvIRis5TMvT9Rh4pOtRMtidA8b3_Y/s1600/woodland+robert+evans+7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
