You know the Griffith Observatory! It’s in the movie Rebel Without a Cause, Arnold Schwarzenegger walked across it naked for The Terminator, and it’s a freaking Los Angeles landmark!

 

If you haven’t been to the Griffith Observatory, this episode will make you want to go. If you have been to the Griffith Observatory, this episode will make you appreciate it so much more! Join me in this episode with Mark Pine, the deputy director of the Griffith Observatory, to learn all about this fascinating L.A. icon.

 

Tune in to learn Who Griffith J. Griffith was, Why Mr. Griffith shot his wife in the head, Why nobody wanted to accept Mr. Griffith’s gift of the observatory until after he was dead, Why this became the world’s first public telescope, About Griffith's two telescopes and planetarium, and so much more!
