I grew up in Winnetka, just down the road from the theater and used to take my dates to it between 1962-66. We would then go across the street and get an ice cream. After that, we would go down to the water and have a few beers. The theater was THE place to go almost every weekend. I had many a good evening both watching the movies and meeting friends there. I miss that joint. It was also one of the most beautiful theaters I have ever seen from the outside.

The Biograph was also owned by my grandfather, Harry Moses Lubliner back in the ‘20-'30.
