WRITINGS
SIDELIGHTS
MaryAnn Bonino is a writer, curator, public speaker, and educator. She served for more than ten years as the curator of the Doheny Mansion, the historic home of Edward L. Doheny, an oil baron who lived in Los Angeles in the early 1900s.
Bonino is active as a concert producer, broadcaster, historical musicologist, and promoter of classical music. She has been the host of the radio series Sunday Music on Los Angeles radio station KUSC 91.5 FM. Prior to that, she spent many years producing programming and serving as an announcer for the station. She was the founding artistic director of Da Camera Society, a historical music organization at Mount St. Mary’s University that presented concerts in the Doheny Mansion and on the university’s campus. She is noted for developing “creative format for the Society’s critically acclaimed Chamber Music in Historic Sites series, which matches world-class ensembles with historically and architecturally significant buildings,” noted a writer on the Mount St. Mary’s University website. She presented more than 800 themed concerts as part of the series, the writer continued.
In addition to this work, Bonino has also been a frequent speaker on music topics and a pre-concert lecturer who introduced many concerts for musical organizations in the Los Angeles area. Richard S. Ginell, writing in American Record Guide, described Bonino in her role with Da Camera Society, stating: “No solemn academic is this good doctor, with her cascades of blond curly hair, effervescent laugh, and free-spirited attitude. Subscribers to the series always see Dr. Bonino at each event introducing the performers and the surroundings in her cheerful manner, greeting patrons like the old friends that they have become.”
Bonino started her career as a historical musicologist. She is a professor-at-large emeritus of Mount St. Mary’s University. She holds an undergraduate degree from that college and a Ph.D. from the University of Southern California.
The Doheny Mansion
In her book The Doheny Mansion: A Biography of a Home, Bonino presents a detailed history of the historical site where she worked as curator. Along with the history of the structure, she details the background of the Doheny family and their rapid rise and equally rapid decline. The Victorian mansion, located in downtown Los Angeles, belonged to oil millionaire Edward L. Doheny and his wife Estelle, a noted philanthropist. The couple emerged from relatively modest beginnings to become important participants in the social and political scenes of the time. The mansion was an elaborate and luxurious structure, boasting such features as the famous Pompeian Room, which featured an “iridescent Tiffany glass dome and imported Siena marble,” noted the writer on the Mount St. Mary University website.
Over the years, important people in politics, business, the Catholic church, and the arts were attendees at parties and gatherings that took place there. When Edward Doheny became involved in the Teapot Dome bribery scandal in the 1920s, however, his fortunes rapidly declined. The family continued living in the mansion, however. Estelle continued her philanthropic pursuits while working to maintain the mansion as a city landmark, a private home, and a showcase for her collections, such as books and exotic plants. In the 1950s, Mount St. Mary’s College used some of the mansion’s properties for classrooms, with Estelle’s consent. In the years following, the mansion and the surrounding grounds became more and more associated with the university, and after Estelle’s death, these properties became part of the downtown Los Angeles campus of Mount St. Mary’s University. In total, the Doheny Mansion was the home of the Doheny family for more than sixty years.
Journeys of the Heart
Bonino tells another historical family story in Journeys of the Heart: Three Sisters, Three Nuns. Here, the author “packs a plethora of facts and photographs into this overstuffed history of three generations of the Gerber family,” noted a Publishers Weekly reviewer. She describes the life and activities of Herbert Gerber and his wife, Jenny, who were married in Mexico in the 1910s. Herbert was an international business professional whose wealth allowed the family to live in extreme luxury. Bonino tells how the Gerbers became friends with painter Diego Rivera and with Miguel Pro, a Jesuit priest executed during a period of persecution of Catholics by president Plutarco Ellas Calles. The three sisters of the title were the Gerbers’ daughters—Ilda, Aline, and Anna—a trio who turned their backs on their family’s wealth and social status to join the Sisters of St. Joseph in hopes of stopping Calles’s brutal campaign against Catholics. Though their parents were strongly against their religious pursuits, the three persisted with their decisions to become nuns. They later became well known when they appealed to the pope to intervene in Mexico to help stop the anti-Catholic violence. Bonino also adds additional details about the sisters’ lives and accomplishments later in their lives. The Publishers Weekly writer called the book a “beguiling family history.”

‘Journeys of the Heart’
The Story of Three Sisters’ Global Journey to a New Kind of Sisterhood
LOS ANGELES, March 15, 2017 — A new book by MaryAnn Bonino, a Mount Saint Mary’s University professor-at-large emeritus, offers a pointed and haunting question: What compels someone to give up a life of opulence in order to serve others?
Journeys of the Heart: Three Sisters, Three Nuns tells the fascinating story of three sisters who, thanks to their father's international businesses and lifestyle, were born into wealth and privilege, and grew up amid breathtaking landscapes on two continents. Bonino’s book paints a colorful picture of the family saga, which was peopled by an amazing array of artists and scientists, industrialists and intellectuals, pioneers and statesmen. Their mother was but one of many strong women in their lives who accepted the barriers imposed upon their sex while merrily crashing through them.
Between the two world wars, Ilda, Aline and Anna Maria Gerber crossed the Atlantic Ocean annually. Sailing deluxe first-class from their homes in Mexico City and New York, they lodged for months at landmark hotels in Italy, Switzerland and Germany — an elegant routine which ended in a dramatic flight from Europe in September 1939. That crossroad in their lives' journey had been preceded three years earlier by another transformative moment when, after years of being taught by tutors and in finishing schools, the Gerber girls were enrolled at a high school in Tucson operated by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, who also founded Mount Saint Mary’s University.
These spirited religious women brought fresh air into the girls' lives. In the mid-1940s, inspired by their example and high standards, Ilda, Aline and Anna Maria chose one-by-one to leave their past selves behind. As Sister Aline Marie, Sister Mechtilde and Sister Hildegarde, they embraced lives of devotion and of service in the fields of medicine and education. Journeys of the Heart also reveals what led to the sisters’ decisions to chart new paths as adults, and chronicles how doggedly their parents initially fought to “save” their daughters from a different kind of sisterhood.
Much of their spirit was owed to their Italian mother who, while devoted to Dante and Italian literature, also championed Mexico and its indigenous heritage. An intellectual dynamo, she devoted half of her 101 years to serving the poor and was befriended by Alfredo Ramos Martinez, whose meditation on spiritual wealth and physical poverty ("Head of a Nun," California, 1934) graces the cover of Journeys of the Heart.
As an undergraduate, Bonino studied with Sister Aline Marie at Mount Saint Mary's Brentwood campus.But only in the mid-1980s, when they were colleagues at the Doheny Mansion on the Mount Saint Mary’s downtown campus, did Sister Aline Marie begin to talk about her family history. After she passed away, Bonino drew close to Sister Mechtilde, who added her own memories while Bonino combed through the seven surviving trunks of family photos and letters in five languages — materials stretching back a century and a half and stored in the Doheny Mansion’s basement.

Journeys of the Heart: Three Sisters--Three Nuns
MaryAnn Bonino. Edizioni Casa Animata, $20 (146p) ISBN 978-0-9816422-1-5
Historical musicologist Bonino (The Doheny Mansion) packs a plethora of facts and photographs into this overstuffed history of three generations of the Gerber family. Herbert Gerber, an American of Swiss heritage who inherited a fortune from his family's cheese company, and Jenny Bozzano, an Italian with ambitions in education, met and married in Mexico during the 1910s as Herbert sought to expand his business and Jenny explored starting a school. Bonino begins with a bounty of biographical information on numerous accomplished relatives (particularly Herbert's cheese monger father) before relating the Gerbers' experiences in Mexico during the tumultuous period leading up to and following WWI. The Gerbers developed close relationships with painter Diego Rivera and Jesuit priest Miguel Pro, who was executed in 1927 as part of President Plutarco Ellas Calles's persecution of Catholicism. The narrative culminates with accounts of the Herbert and Jenny's three daughters, who abandoned their family's high cultural milieu and wealth to join Sisters of St. Joseph (to the anguish of both parents). In an attempt to stop Calles's persecution of Catholics, they publicly lobbied the pope to intervene, an act that launched them to national fame. Though haphazardly organized material impedes the book's narrative flow, this beguiling family history is intriguing on its own and also offers a unique exploration of the cultural climate of Europe and Mexico during the first half of the 20th century.

Music in historic sites: Los Angeles venues surprise and delight

Abstract:
The Da Camera Society, under the helm of Mary Ann Bonino, has launched a series of concerts in historic sites. The Chamber Music in Historic Sites series makes use of unusual venues around Los Angeles, CA, selected to enhance the quality of chamber music.
Full Text:
You are sitting in the pews of the cavernous, starkly modern concrete interior of St Basil's Church in Los Angeles. The deliciously reverberant sounds washing gently over you come from Paul Hillier's Theater of Voices, which is presenting the American premiere of Arvo Part's hauntingly ethereal Berlin Mass. In accordance with Piirt's instructions, the performers are out of the audience's sight, in the balcony to the rear, creating the impression of music coming from ancient rocks.
No formal concert hall that I know of could possibly duplicate this magically right combination of sound and setting. This is what California's most inventive concert series, Chamber Music in Historic Sites, is all about.
Yet Chamber Music in Historic Sites is also about whirling on a merry-go-round on a blustery day in Griffith Park dressed in black-tie and sneakers, listening to the California E.A.R. Unit pumping out Steve Reich and John Cage through ten surrounding loudspeakers. It can be about hearing the Chilingirian String Quartet or fortepianist Melvyn Tan in the elegant, old-money rooms of the Doheny Mansion, or the Modern Mandolin Quartet in a private white-themed house overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Obviously, a locale need not be "historic" in order to qualify.
The seemingly mad programmer behind this permanent floating concert series is Dr Mary Ann Bonino (seen above astride a historic site), a professor at Mount St Mary's College and founder of the series' presenting group, the Da Camera Society. Appropriately, the Society's current offices are near the college in the picturesque Stimson House, an 1891 threestory sandstone castle with exquisite hardwood interiors. No solemn academic is this good doctor, with her cascades of blond curly hair, effervescent laugh, and free-spirited attitude. Subscribers to the series always see Dr Bonino at each event introducing the performers and the surroundings in her cheerful manner, greeting patrons like the old friends that they have become.
Dr Bonino's series is a new-fangled idea that grew out of an old-fashioned one--that chamber music ought to be heard in the intimate salons for which it was originally written. That would make it a spin-off of the authentic instrument movement--authentic performance spaces, if you will.
Yet to some outsiders, Los Angeles might be the last major megalopolis one would associate with the words "historic sites". As world cities go, L.A. is relatively young, having been rounded in 1781, and you have to look long and hard before finding a building erected in the 19th century. Despite the work of national, state, and city preservation organizations, old lovable structures are routinely razed in the spirit of a development-mad city that allegedly keeps reinventing itself.
Nevertheless, the intrepid Dr Bonino has come up with a wealth of venerable or unusual performance spaces hidden among the minimalls, skyscrapers, and palm trees. She has found churches vast and small, old-fashioned and radically modern; private houses designed by Frank Lloyd Wright; spaces in old movie theaters, department stores, hotels, museums, libraries, City Hall, even Hangar #1 at the Los Angeles International Airport.
One is amazed to learn that before becoming an impresario, Dr Bonino had absolutely no background in architecture. But using her musicological studies as a springboard, she developed an acute sensitivity for what looked and sounded right together. And she gets plenty of suggestions. "I have scouts, sometimes subscribers, architecture buffs", she says. "I never walk up and knock on doors. In the beginning, we got an awful lot of help from the Los Angeles Conservancy and Pasadena Heritage, who continue to help us. Now the terra is cognita; there aren't too many surprises out there for me.
"Driving around town is a new experience since I started the series because I'm looking at the landscape in a way much different from the way I did before. Most drivers in Los Angeles-and it probably is a good thing!--think, 'I'm here and I'm going there and this is the road.' Driving is not a social experience and it would be very dangerous if it were. But I find myself stopping and looking. 'Oh my God, I've never seen that before', and making note of it."
Yet Bonino, a native Angeleno who first picked up on the ties between music and performance spaces when she studied in Italy, is all too aware of Los Angeles' distance, chronological and physical, from the sources of European music. "We don't have that added advantage of sitting in a thousand-year-old structure", she says. "In Europe, the stones resonate with the spirits of the people who were there.
So we have to work a little harder. "What we do have is a lot of period architecture that seeks to evoke those periods, even though they are not ancient or sacred in the same way here. The spiritual association has to be made in the mind. But I find it just as real here."
The inspiration for the series dates back to 1973, when Dr Bonino organized regular amateur chamber music sessions (or Friday night soirees) in the Doheny Mansion, which is owned by Mount St Mary's College. Slowly, as her audience grew and funding increased, she began to attract professionals like TASHI and fortepianist Malcolm Bilson to her soirees.
The catalyst for major growth came in 1980 when the Los Angeles Bicentennial Committee asked her to put together some concerts in six local sites. The series concluded on the day of the bicentennial with a concert of music by Los Angeles composers in the Pacific Design Center, a huge cornflower-blue monstrosity known to natives as the Big Blue Whale. "The first year we did this, we didn't expect it to go on", Dr Bonino says, but the response was so strong that she planned an encore for the following season under the label Chamber Music in Historic Sites.
From there the series grew in quantum leaps--six concerts soon became 15, then 21, then 26, all the way up to a peak of 50 in 1988-89. By 1986, Dr Bonino would no longer confine herself to chamber music per se, presenting the world premiere of Morton Subotnick's all-electronic Return in the Griffith Park Planetarium or folksinger Odetta in a powerful 1987 performance of spirituals at the First A.M.E. Zion Cathedral on the fringe of South-Central L.A. She started out-of-town weekend festivals in places like Catalina Island, the desert, or Lake Arrowhead in the mountains.
She also launched an imaginative Children's Concerts in Historic Sites spin-off that takes fleeting young attention spans into account, where storytelling and other activities are combined with brief pieces of music. "I started to put myself in the place of children", she says with a glimmer of remembered mischief in her eyes. "I knew that I didn't want to have to sit down and be good the whole time; I would want to be free and play, and want there to be a lot of variety."
Most performances were, and still are, sold out--despite extremely high ticket prices owing to the often-cozy seating capacities of the sites. The subscribers trust Dr Bonino as they would a good travel guide, and they'll apparently follow her anywhere, even after some of her hunches don't work out.
Alas, the rickety California economy started to eat away at attendance in the 90s, as it has in all the arts--and Bonino found herself overextended. So in 1992 she decided to make a preemptive strike to keep the Da Camera Society on solid ground. She slashed back the number of concerts from 42 to only 18, and temporarily eliminated the festivals. "We were not in desperate straits but I could see that if the pattern continued, we would be", she says. "so I decided that it would be prudent to take action while we were in control of the situation. And it also occurred to me that we could have the same impact on the cultural scene with fewer events."
On the other hand, be on the lookout for a Chamber Music in Historic Sites series that may be coming to a town near you. Until now, the otherwise indefatigable Dr Bonino hasn't had the time to invade other cities fulltime, although she helped a Seattle group through a couple of seasons with a similar series. But she has formed a separately incorporated organization to show people in other cities how to put it on, and she has made scouting trips to cities like Boston to find interesting spaces.
So don't be surprised if someday your local paper mentions a concert that resembles a local outing at the Santa Anita Turf Club, where the concert was opened by the uniformed fellow who blows the trumpet to start the race and the bill of fare included Haydn's Horseman and Mozart's HuntQuartets. "We have no shame!" laughs Dr Bonino.
