I worked at the Santa Clara Theater from 1961-June 1963. Mr. Jenkins was the manager at the time. The Usherette’s wore brocade uniforms and carried flashlights to assist patrons in finding a seat. My favorite part of the job was getting to see movies I probably would not have seen. My least favorite part was having to approach “necking” couples and tell them we had a hands off policy. I also remember priests from the University of CA coming to “screen” movies before recommending to students. All and all a great experience.
