The Hillside Memorial Park and Mortuary is a Jewish cemetery in Culver City, California, United States. Many Jewish people from the entertainment industry are buried here. The cemetery is known for Al Jolson's elaborate tomb (designed by Los Angeles architect Paul Williams), a 75-foot-high pergola and monument atop a hill above a water cascade, all visible from the adjacent San Diego Freeway.[1][2]
