“Power corrupts, power absolutely corrupts,” said Mr. Acton. I read the news today, oh boy, about a good Hebrew boy from Brooklyn who sold Alcia Pollock to buy a news. The lead sounds like a kind of ballad.
According to the Editor and Publisher, Tribune Co. He continues to roll in confusion. What else to explain the news that L.A. mogul David Geffen’s Jackson Pollock painting yesterday’s record sale price – about $140 million – was lifted as further evidence that the Los Angeles Times intends to buy it any week now? He recently sold two other classic paintings for $143.5 million. See: http://www.editorandpublisher.com/
What I want to know will make him happy?
According to David Geffen: “Happiness is harder than money. Anyone who thinks money will make you happy doesn’t have money.”
So, who is David Geffen and how did he make so much money? More importantly, why would anyone want to compare Jackson Pollock elegantly, considering selling it to buy a news print. Does it take all your hands and wash it with a new white towel?
According to AskMen, a publication that has a song title, David Lawrence Geffen was born on February 21, 1943 in Brooklyn, New York. His parents, Abraham and Batya Geffen, worked for a class of Ukrainian Jewish émigrés who manufactured bras. His mother considered him a “miracle boy” and called him “King David” until he was a young adult. To this I dare say that all mothers believe that their children are “miracles.” Most of all, however, they do not have their brasseries.
According to the article in summary, David does not like the restrictions and limitations of the school system. He made similar musicals and movies. Clearly, the scientist experienced the field at a young age in the narrowness, limitations and great dimensions of hatred, attending the University of Texas, in which he sharpened his taste, leaving it. At this age his father passed away, which caused him a clear loss, but he turned the attack of his true calling into flight.
David Geffen is the person of “Staying Power.” (1) Endurance: Perpetual existence or succession: continuation, continuance, continuity, continuity, duration, tenacity, tenacity. 2.

In the early 1960s, David Geffen worked as a CBS reporter and then took an email job with the most powerful talent agent in the US, the William Morris Agency in the 1960s. He got another job by extending his credentials and pedigree to get the job. Fearless and relentless, David Geffen began to move his goals. The old saying “Be in the right place at the right time” may be a cliché, but this simple wisdom rings true.
When he was in the right place, he found a place for him as a talent where he could show what he had and since 1967 he was a new talent agent. caldera He got this goal right away, but he moved on to another medium where he narrowed his focus to music and always had his eye on the ball and got a nice paycheck to boot. represented some of the icons of the late 1960s in the music industry. He knew he had star power, and sought advice from brokers like Clive Davis and Ahmet Ertegun to start his own label, Asylum Records, in 1971.
David Geffen attracted the giants of the 1970s to Asylum records, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne, Joni Mitchell, the Eagles and others, when he promised it would be a society of artists as an asylum, hence the name. By 1972, Mr. Endurance, a.k.a. Geffen sold Warner Bros. Pictures for millions and took some in cash, but a significant amount in Warner Communications stock provided the next leg of his objective to become a giant in the film industry.
From this launch pad, David Geffen bought the hip spot of the LA scene in the early 1970s, the Roxy. Faithful friends were there to go to the club. Neil Young headlined on opening night.
Some bumps in the road when hooking up with others that would interfere with the innate sense of “eternal life”.

During the 1980s he conducted Geffen records and relationships with the power stars of the era, John Lennon and Elton John, to name a few. By the early 1980s, with declining sales, Mr. Novelty, a.k.a., Geffen moved into Broadway musicals, producing Dreamgirls and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Hounds.” He also produced films like Dangerous Business and Little Shop Horror and Best. Always with an open eye, he signed with Guns N’ Roses.
By 1987 Geffen Records had sold MCA for over half a billion dollars, making him Hollywood’s first self-made billionaire. Its future effects mainly give us migraines. I don’t like it. In the three forces of Hollywood, Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg are the remaining two who formed Dreams SKG. . Their screen skills need no further accolades, in their merit as great.
David Geffen finally accomplished every goal he set for himself when he was a kid in Brooklyn going to a movie house to watch movies and music instead of giving in to the restrictions or limitations imposed on him by others.
It has a personal side. He loved both women and men. He is proud to be gay and declared his preference in 1992 when it was not popular. He supports artistic and humanitarian causes. He is friendly with people who follow politics and helped President William Jefferson Clinton.
David Geffen acknowledges that while money cannot bring happiness, the “power of the purse” exercised by legislators carries great weight when financial requests are made to implement valuable services and programs dear to their hearts. A distorted old newsprint can at least put some obstacles in the way of these powerful votes for public purposes.

Why, then, should a good Jewish boy from Brooklyn consider selling Alciato Pollock so that he can get thin paper, which is black on white, and cover the table cloth. It is simple; he reads all over his head.
