Cliff Broughton was born in Iowa in 1898 and resident in Los Angeles, California by 1924. In 1925, he is credited with his work as production manager in his first film, The Red Kimono. He worked primarily on independent productions until 1942, when he took the role of production supervisor for RKO/Hughes Productions. As a director, he made his last film, The Bat, for Universial Studios in 1959. Broughton died in 1979.
Las Vegas School, grades K-8, 1924. Las Vegas School previously housed all grades, including high school students in a separate wing during the early 1900s. Research suggests that the high school was later separated into a different building. That school, named Clark County High School and then renamed Las Vegas High School, was constructed in 1917.
