It is with great sadness that we share news of the passing of Hagny Farestveit.
Many of you will remember Hagny as our receptionist and operator here at Local 47. Having started in 1989, for over 20 years she cheerily fielded phone calls and greeted members as they entered the financial offices. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
Funeral services will be held Saturday, June 28, 1pm at Salem Lutheran Church, 1211 N. Brand Blvd., in Glendale. Hagny’s children extend an open invitation for all who wish to attend and pay their respects.

Max Herman played his first professional music job at the age of 13. He has since enjoyed a stellar music career as the first trumpeter for many of the top name bands of the Swing Era. Most notably, Max was the first trumpet in the Bob Crosby Orchestra. His second career was that of music publisher, forming Fiesta Music and Herman Music. His third career was that of President of the Los Angeles Musicians Union, for which he is credited for many advances of that organization. View a video interview with Max Herman at namm.org.
