Former Colony Capital CEO Thomas Barrack, a longtime ally of Donald Trump who was Tuesday arrested on seven federal criminal charges, has long had ties to Hollywood beyond his home in Santa Monica.
A decade ago, the 74-year-old private equity real estate investor partnered with construction magnate Ronald Tutor and the Qatar Investment authority to buy Miramax from Disney for $660 million. He served as chairman of company, mostly signing licensing deals for the 700-film library of Oscar-winning titles without producing much new content.
