Home > Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery
The Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery is located at 1218 Glendon Avenue in the Westwood Village area of Los Angeles, California.It is the resting place of some of the entertainment industry's greatest names, although it was not always sought-after. Indeed, when it was announced Marilyn Monroe was to be buried there in 1962, observers were astonished, as the cemetery was obscure with no other "big names" besides Fanny Brice.
That changed over the years, however, and now Westwood Village has become on par with Forest Lawn as the ultimate Hollywood hereafter "hot spot".
