Aerial view of Hollywood, a Broward County,
Florida community, between Ft. Lauderdale and Miami Beach. The community was founded in 1920 by entrepreneur John Wesley Young, Jr., who envisioned a “dream city” that would especially appeal to “snowbirds” who would buy property far from harsh northern climes. The town was first named “Hollywood-by-the-Sea,” a name that was later shortened. Photo by Carol Highsmith, 2020.
