Armand Hammer Mausoleum


Armand Hammer
May 21, 1898–December 10, 1990
Westwood Memorial Park
Los Angeles, California

The only family mausoleum in Westwood Village Memorial Park houses the remains of tycoon and owner of Occidental Petroleum Armand Hammer and other members of the Hammer family. A controversial and self-promoting figure, he claimed at various times in his long life that he was friends with Vladimir Lenin, Ronald Reagan, and Richard Nixon. Numerous magazines and newspapers reported on his exploits, and five biographies have been penned about his life.
