On Friday, October 30, 2009, at Larry Edmunds Bookshop, Bob Birchard signed his book, Early Universal City, and Carla Laemmle (who just celebrated her 100th birthday on Tuesday) and Rick Atkins signed, Among the Rugged Peaks: An Intimate Biorgraphy of Carla Laemmle. After birthday cake for Carla, Bob Birchard gave a short slide presentation about the early years of Universal City.

CONGRATULATIONS CARLA!!! How great to be signing books at 100 +. You are a Dear Lady and wish I was there to get the book and your autograph! I wish you the best and many more years of signing books. You are a gem. God bless you.

How many centenarians get to have a book signing?
(she could easily pass for 85 or so.) What fascinating stories she must know. Think of all the history she has witnessed.
Wasn’t director Ernst Laemmle (1900-50) also her half brother? He’s also at Beth Olam, outside.
