Harry Chandler: Dynasties, Detours, and the LA River

Harry Chandler: Dynasties, Detours, and the LA River

What’s it like to carry one of the most powerful names in Los Angeles history — and still make your own mark?

Harry Chandler is the great-great-grandson of Harrison Gray Otis, who took over the Los Angeles Times in 1882 and began a century-long dynasty that helped shape the city’s growth, politics, and mythos. But Harry? He took a different path.

In this episode, we talk about what it’s like to grow up a Chandler, how he ended up helping the Yahoo founders write their first business plan, and why he walked away from the tech world to become a full-time artist. We also talk about his work to revitalize the LA River — and what it means to reimagine a city your family once helped design.

And yes — he used to take his grandmother to concerts. But when your grandmother is Dorothy Chandler… and the concerts are at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion — well, that hits a little different.
