The Top Earners in Hollywood for 2009
Vanity Fair recently published a list of the top earners in Hollywood for 2009 and six out of the top ten names not surprisingly are Jewish: Bay, Spieldberg, Phillips, Stiller, Abrams and Bruckheimer. The list only includes people attached to the creative process (Producers, Directors and Actors) so there is no telling what the list might have looked like were agents, managers and executives also included. With Jewish culture’s historical ties to Vaudville, the Yiddish Theater, Literature etc, it’s not surprising that many people of Jewish background have chosen to enter “the industry” and been successful at it.
