Dorothy Buffum Chandler
Dorothy Buffum Chandler (May 19, 1901 – July 6, 1997) was a Los Angeles cultural leader. She is perhaps best known for her efforts on behalf of the performing arts.
==Personal life==
Born Dorothy Mae Buffum in 1901 in La Fayette, Illinois, she moved to Long Beach, California, in 1904 with her family. Her father, Charles Abel Buffum (later mayor 1921-1924), and her uncle, Edwin, opened the first of what would become the 16-store chain of Buffum's department stores.
She attended Stanford University, where at a school dance she met Norman Chandler, eldest son of the family that had published the ''Los Angeles Times'' since 1883 and was a significant social and political force in the area. She was a member of Pi Beta Phi Women's Fraternity. The two married in 1922, and had two children, Camilla and Otis, both born in 1927. At the time of her death in 1997, she had eight grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
In 1945, her husband became publisher of the ''Times,'' a position he held until he was succeeded by their son, Otis, in 1960. Norman Chandler died in 1973, and Dorothy Chandler never remarried.
