He was honorably discharged as a captain in the Marines in 1945, but remained in the United States Marine Corps Reserve until 1951, when he retired with the rank of Major.[1] Philippe'sIn 1944, while still in the Marines, Binder married his wife, Beverly Martin.[1] Her father, David Martin, and uncle, Harry Martin, had purchased Philippe's restaurant in Los Angeles from its founder and original owner, Philippe Mathieu, in 1927.[1] Bill and Beverly had met at Frank's Place, a cafe owned by her father, located directly across the street from the Eastside Brewery, where Binder worked at the time.[1] The couple moved from California to Hancock, Michigan, after their wedding, where Binder worked as a brewer.[1] However, after just a few months in Michigan they returned to Los Angeles.[1] Binder owned and operated a coffee shop in Los Angeles. After several years, Binder began working with his father-in-law at Philippe's following the death of Harry Martin.[1] The family was forced to leave Philippe's original location on Aliso Street due to the construction of the Hollywood Freeway.[1] They reopened Philippe's at its present location on Alameda Street near Olvera Street and Union Station in 1951.[1] David Martin persuaded Binder to run Philippe's at its new location. Binder kept the restaurant's menu virtually the same, focusing on its famous French dip sandwiches, which uses roast beef, ham, roast pork, lamb or turkey on a French roll, dipped in au jus.[1] Later lifeBill Binder retired in 1985, turning Philippe's over to his sons, John Binder and Richard Binder, who continue to run the restaurant as of February 2010.[1] The brothers added new menu items, such as salads and turkey sandwiches, after Binder's retirement, though he continued to eat breakfast at Philippe's frequently.[1] Bill Binder died at a nursing facility in Pasadena, California, on January 28, 2010, at the age of 96.[1] He was survived by his sons, John and Richard, who continue to run Philippe's; his daughter, Kathleen Binder Halstead, 10 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. His wife, Beverly, died in 2001.[1] His memorial service was held at St. Therese Catholic Church in Alhambra, California.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 {{cite news|first=Keith |last=Thursby |title=William 'Bill' Binder dies at 94; ran Philippe's eatery|url=http://articles.latimes.com/2010/feb/09/local/la-me-bill-binder9-2010feb09 |work=Los Angeles Times|publisher=|date=2010-02-09 |accessdate=2010-02-26| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100212112601/http://articles.latimes.com/2010/feb/09/local/la-me-bill-binder9-2010feb09| archivedate= 12 February 2010 | deadurl= no}} External links
