Last Evening for Dancing in the Terrace Room

This second lecture in a two-part series will pick up the story of Grand Hotel from just before World War II to present day. You will learn about W. Stewart Woodfill and how he came to the hotel as a modest desk clerk and worked his way through the ranks to manage and purchase the property.
