Trivia

Owned The Mansfield Theatre (now known as Brooks Atkinson Theatre) on Broadway from 1945-1974. The Chanins had lost the venue in foreclosure in 1933 and it remained mostly dark until 1945 when it was purchased by Producer Michael Myerberg who leased it to CBS TV until 1960. The venue then returned to theatrical use and renamed after Brooks Atkinson, the New York Times drama critic. In 1967, The Nederlander Organization took partial interest and bought the remainder from the Meyerberg estate in 1974.
