The LA Times is gossiping about some of the ill-will that Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences employees have for newish CEO Dawn Hudson (she's the one who supposedly made the movie museum at LACMA move happen). One sore spot is "her proposal to hire superstar architect Thom Mayne to refurbish the fourth-floor offices of the academy's headquarters on Wilshire Boulevard [in Beverly Hills]." Sources say her reasoning for the $4 million remodel was "that it would improve staff communication." [LAT, image via David Starkman]
