Biographical Narrative

Doctor Theodore Perceval Gerson was long accorded a position of prominence in Hollywood. He was a skilled physician and surgeon. He also played a leading role in various cultural activities and socio-economic and political movements.
He was born at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on May 27th, 1872, the son of Isidor Isaac and Ella Hemenway (Woodruff) Gerson. His maternal grandfather, Theodore Tuttle Woodruff was the pioneer inventor of the sleeping car for railroads, an elaboration of which later became the Pullman Car. Dr. Gerson died in Glendale, California, on March 3, 1960.
Doctor Gerson was graduated from Central High School of Philadelphia in 1891, and was awarded the M.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1895. In 1896, he pursued post-graduate studies at the Medical School of Johns Hopkins University at Baltimore, following which he spent three years in internships at large Eastern hospitals, and taught pathology at his Alma Mater. From 1899 to 1903 Dr. Gerson practiced medicine in Lansdowne, Pennsylvania and in the latter year moved to Los Angeles.
He was married January 7th, 1899 to Harriet Anna Thompson of Chicago. His second wife, the former Vera Madeline Daniels of Ontario, Canada, and later of Saginaw, Michigan, he married in Pasadena, November 3rd, 1923. His children by his first marriage were Lowell Woodruff, Gerald Perceval and Cecil Alice. By his second marriage he had one son, Cedric.
From boyhood Doctor Gerson had taken an active interest in music, drama, literature, science, and various cultural pursuits. In addition to medical articles, he wrote several articles on music and allied subjects.
In August 1906, he was elected to membership in the Severance Club, a cultural conversation group in Los Angeles, and after service in minor offices, became its President in 1917. He remained in that position by unchallenged annual elections until his death.
In 1918 he asked a group of prominent men and women to meet with him to discuss plans for the promotion of greater participation in cultural activities by the citizens of Southern California. This meeting raised almost a thousand dollars, appointed a development committee of ten, made plans for incorporation, and secured a tract of land as site for its activities in the hills of Hollywood. From this meeting the famous Hollywood Bowl plans originated.
Dr. Gerson, besides being the founder, Charter board member, and for many years the single driving force of the Hollywood Bowl Association, was a Trustee of the Metropolitan University, a Director of the Southern California branch of the American Civil Liberties Union, Physician to the California State Personnel Board, Director and Secretary of the Los Angeles Mothers Clinic Association, Inc. and a member of the Municipal Newspaper Commission. He was also a member of the Advisory Board of Yenching University in Peiping China, the American Medical Association, California State Medical Society, Los Angeles County Medical Association, Chicago Pathological Society and Alpha Mu Pi Omega Medical Fraternity.
In 1953 the library purchased, with the assistance of contributions by friends of Dr. Gerson, his distinguished autograph collection of Americans prominent in political and social history from 1850 to the present.
Some of the autographs in Dr. Gerson's collection were collected by William Henry Knight, a member of the research staff of the Pacific coast historian, Hubert Howe Bancroft; others are addressed to Dr. Gerson. Also included were autographed letters addressed to Senator John D. Works and Benjamin Fay Mills. Those addressed to Knight, Mills and Works were removed and cataloged separately. The scope and content of these letters are indicated in the numbered collections catalog under the entries for these individuals. The letters addressed to Dr. Gerson were added to his papers.
The many photographs, clippings and related ephemeral material as well as the autographs, not falling within either the correspondence of Dr. Gerson or Mills, Knight and Works, were added to the Miscellaneous Manuscripts, Picture and Ephemera Collections. An inventory of the original Gerson Autograph Collection is in the Collections File, Gerson folder.
In 1961 the department received additional papers of Dr. Gerson as a gift from his wife. Included in these papers were correspondence, photographs, clippings memorabilia and the diaries of Dr. Gerson covering the major part of his career. Of particular interest are the papers relating to the Hollywood Bowl Association and the Severance Club.
In 1966 the department received additional papers of Dr. Gerson that were contained in the Harold H. Story papers (Collection #995). These papers were added to the Gerson collection in appropriate categories and in Box 13, January 1968. Included in these papers were correspondence, photographs, clippings and memorabilia covering the major part of Dr. Gerson's career. Of particular interest are the papers relating to the Hollywood Bowl Association.
