The movie exhibition business flows through Brenden’s veins, and it’s the only industry he has ever known. Click here to learn about the Ted Mann Theater in Los Angeles. Known only as “grandma” to Brenden, Fleming starred alongside Bob Hope, Gregory Peck, Kirk Douglas, Glenn Ford and Ronald Reagan, to name a few. His wife, Rhonda Fleming-Mann, has more than 40 motion picture credits, including “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” (1949) and “Gunfight at the O.K.

Mann was not alone in his larger-than-life status. Mann’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood was the centerpiece of his fleet. A motion picture industry pioneer by anyone’s definition, Mann built and operated the Los Angeles-based Mann Theatre Corp., which included 450 theatres in 12 states at its height. But one memento, a massive wooden desk, has meaning beyond compare for the Vegas showman.īrenden’s colossal and impeccably kept desk belonged to his late grandfather and mentor, Ted Mann. It also houses Brenden’s eclectic memorabilia, everything from African art and exotic animal skins to original movie posters and a museumlike photo display of iconic movie legends. It serves as a “meet and greet” for Tinseltown’s Academy Award® winners and hottest stars of today (Jack Nicholson, Sean Penn, Holly Hunter, Nicolas Cage, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Laurence Fishbourne, Jennifer Garner, Michael Jackson, Hayden Panettiere, Amanda Bynes and hundreds more-been there, done the Brenden Celebrity Suite).

Brenden oversees his growing enterprise from his offices in the Brenden Celebrity Suite, an animal-inspired boss’ den complete with wall-to-wall tinted glass overlooking his bustling box office at Brenden Theatres & IMAX® at the renowned Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Johnny Brenden is the President/CEO, sole proprietor and company spokesperson for the Brenden Theatre Corporation, an independent motion picture theater chain with 86 screens of movie magic that bear his name and stretch from Northern California to Southern Nevada.
