Encino Celebrity home for sale
By: Joan Duffy
The man who was dubbed as the first openly Jewish man in Hollywood once lived at 4875 Louise Ave Encino. Jolson moved to Encino from New York to allegedly become a gentleman farmer raising cows, chickens, walnuts, and oranges. Jolson was married to Ruby Keeler at the time and they soon adopted a baby boy. They began remodeling and soon turned the five-acre plot of land into a place where Jolson could rehearse for movies and musicals.
It wasn’t long before Jolson’s career flopped and his marriage failed. For several years, however, Jolson served as honorary mayor of Encino and President of its Chamber of Commerce. He remarried, and lived in his Louise street home until his death in 1950. Since then, it’s changed hands many times. Charlie Sheen’s trust bought from Katey Sagal, who bought it from Kirstie Alley in 1997.
