Notable Actors

The section was removed to prevent others to just add any person that they want. That is why it needs citations to confirm notibility or it may get out of hand. Also as a side note Tom Hatten portrayed FDR in Annie back in the 80s.--Jojhutton (talk) 15:12, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Here Ford Motor Company presented free symphony orchestra concerts and other entertainment during the 1935 exposition. That was before the days of the omnipresent air-plane. Today, the flight path into the San Diego International Airport goes directly over this otherwise fine amphitheater, and consequently it is rarely used.
