BEFORE SHE ENTERED the rarefied world of the Hollywood elite, Greta Lee took a step back. In 2020, she moved with her family from Brooklyn to El Sereno, a gentrifying working-class Latino neighborhood on the Eastside of Los Angeles. She settled in a small hilltop home atop an acre of land previously zoned for cattle grazing and considered acquiring some goats like her neighbors had done-that is, "until I Googled what they sound like, and they sound exactly like whining children," she says. She now spends her free time raising three chickens, tending to wild grasses, and harvesting her own perilla leaves and avocados. "It's a whole thing, trying to open up a Whole Foods at our house," she declares with just a tinge of self mockery
"It feels like a holistic way to live for us with our kids and a good balance for me in this insanity. This Sunset Tower insanity." We're at Sunset Tower Hotel's the Tower Bar, the ritzy, woodpaneled haunt of anyone who's anyone in the motion-picture industry, where the shaded stranger obstructing your view of the swimming pool might be an Oscar nominee. Lee has become a regular this awards season, but she makes a minor show of bristling at the bar's fripperies.
