Chair, Amblin Partners
Famed filmmaker Spielberg directed, co-wrote and produced the personal homage to his upbringing in “The Fabelmans,” which was nominated last year for seven Oscars including Best Picture. His six-decade career spans “Jaws,” “Jurassic Park” and “Schindler’s List.” He has a dozen projects percolating including an original film centered around the character Frank Bullitt, a fictional San Francisco police officer originally portrayed by Steve McQueen in the 1968 film “Bullitt.” Spielberg set up boutique Amblin Partners to house and financially benefit from his filmed entertainment, which is mostly made across the Hollywood studio system. Spielberg is the recipient of various awards including three Academy Awards (with two for Best Director) and 12 Emmy Awards.
