The Berry in Berry Grand was probably Truman C. Berry, who was mentioned as a partner in the Gale Theatre in a 1920 L.A. Times article quoted in this comment on our Roxy Theatre page.

Berry is also mentioned in connection with Siler and Gwin in a 1935 book (available only in snippet view), Reports of cases determined in the District Courts of Appeal of the state of California, Volume 11

The single time I’ve found this theater mentioned in the trade journals it is hyphenated as the Berry-Grand theater. The February 19, 1916, issue of The Moving Picture World reported that it had been taken over by L. Uhlig. This was also the only mention of L. Uhlig I’ve found.
