So I'm now wondering – where was Woodbury actually located when my mom went there? Unfortunately, she's no longer around for me to ask...

Thanks to anyone who can help!

Hi Scott,

I was just going through archives here at my work and I came across a link to this (rather badly scanned) copy of Woodbury history, including a picture of 727 S. Figueroa.

We had this link archived from a tribute article we ran last year for the late tennis great Bobby Riggs. It appears that he was a classmate of your mother's because he also graduated in 1936!

Enjoy!
