Hollywood Movie Maker Jeffrey
American film producer Jeffrey Katzenberg sinks his hands and feet into the cement at Hollywood's Chinese Theatre to mark a 40-year career as a pioneering movie maker. A former studio boss at Disney, the 65-year-old is best known as the head of DreamWorks Animation, which made the money-spinning "Shrek," "Kung Fu Panda" and "Madagascar" franchises. "That's what all these handprints and footprints are really all about, the dreams we, in Hollywood, have delivered," Katzenberg said before plunging his hands into the cement. Seen as one of Tinseltown's most influential kingmakers, Katzenberg has a personal wealth estimated at $880 million. The mogul recently netted more than $300 million after Comcast, the biggest cable television operator in the US, completed a $3.8 billion buyout of the studio.
