WMA’s New Fund: The MailRoom Fund
By Rafat Ali - Thu 27 Mar 2008 11:16 PM PST
So that’s the name, I found out: William Morris Agency, which announced its then un-named fund along with Accel Partners and Venrock, now has a name for it: The MailRoom Fund. The explanation: rising from the mailroom...David Geffen, Barry Diller, and Mike Ovitz did, as did others. Richard Wolpert, the former president of Disney Online and the chief strategy officer at RealNetworks, is heading the fund. No investments done yet, but it is only three weeks old.
For good measure, here’s the book about rising from the mailroom in Hollywood: “’The Mailroom: Hollywood History from the Bottom Up’: David Rensin”
