I was a Black Projectionist in the sixties and seventies. In Los Angeles, you had to be licensed by the Department of Building and Safety to work as a professional projectionist. The practical test was given at Los Angeles Police Department Auditorium at Parker Center, 150 N. Los Angeles Street. The entire booth was all Brinkert Equipment which was rare even then. You had to be twenty-one to be licensed but the tests were so complicated and no young person ever applied, so at 18 no one ever asked me how old I was and I was granted a license after passing all of the tests and worked in So Cal for a while attending UCLA.
