Timeline

1920

At the age of 18, he inherited an estimated $600 million from his grandfather, Leo S. Bing, a real estate developer who had made his fortune in New York in the 1920s.

1965

Stephen Leo Bing (March 31, 1965 – June 22, 2020) was an American businessman, film producer, investor, philanthropist, and screenwriter.

He was the founder of Shangri-La Entertainment, an organization with interests in property, construction, entertainment and music.

Bing was born in New York City on March 31, 1965.

His parents were Helen, a nurse, and Peter Bing, a doctor in public health.

He was Jewish on his father's side and Croatian on his mother's. Bing attended the Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles.

1993

Beginning with a $500 contribution in 1993 to support Senator Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., in his bid for re-election, Bing contributed more than $10.7 million at the federal level to the Democratic Party and its candidates, according to OpenSecrets.

2000

In 2000, Bing launched his own production company, Shangri-La Entertainment.

He reportedly invested around $85 million to co-finance The Polar Express, an animated film featuring the voice of Tom Hanks, which earned $285 million globally and was one of the year's box-office successes.

He was also the financier of Robert Zemeckis' Beowulf, and the producer/financier of Shine a Light, a Rolling Stones concert film directed by Martin Scorsese.

Bing also financed and produced the independently released Jerry Lee Lewis album Last Man Standing.

87 contributions, in California Bing donated $7.8 million worth from 2000 on, according to the California secretary of state.

2001

In 2001, Bing sued billionaire Kirk Kerkorian for invasion of privacy.

Bing alleged that convicted criminal and private investigator Anthony Pellicano took Bing's dental floss out of his trash to collect his DNA.

At the time, Kerkorian was in a legal fight with his former wife Lisa Bonder, a former professional tennis player, over the amount of child support he would pay, with the billionaire reportedly suspecting Bing (a previous boyfriend) to be the biological father of Bonder's daughter Kira.

After Bing was proven by DNA testing to be the father of Bonder's child, Bing and Kerkorian settled their dispute out of court.

Bing had a relationship with Elizabeth Hurley, which resulted in a pregnancy.

Bing urged Hurley to have an abortion, but Hurley refused.

Bing denied paternity by alleging that he and Hurley had a brief, non-exclusive relationship in 2001.

However, a DNA test established Bing as the child's father.

2002

The biggest checks were written in 2002 when he gave a total of $8.2 million to the Democratic National Committee.

He also gave to specific candidates, including Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi and Dianne Feinstein.

Hurley gave birth to Damian Charles Hurley on April 4, 2002.

Hugh Grant is Damian's godfather.

The paternity of Bonder's daughter was revealed by Anthony Pellicano, a private investigator (and wiretapper) hired by Kerkorian's lawyer, who was also a "friend" to Bing.

2003

In addition to his producing and film finance work, he also co-wrote both the screenplay and the story of Kangaroo Jack (2003).

2004

2005

He spent $4.25 million in 2005 in a successful effort to defeat Prop. 77, a redistricting initiative sponsored by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

2006

Bing was reported to have given at least $49.5 million during the 2006 election cycle in support of Proposition 87, a California initiative which sought to raise $4 billion in oil production taxes to help develop alternative fuels.

Bing also supported several key races in other parts of the country as Democrats fought to win back control of Congress.

They included Democratic challenger Bob Casey, Jr. in Pennsylvania, who unseated conservative GOP incumbent Senator Rick Santorum, and future United States senator Tammy Duckworth in Illinois, then a Democratic congressional hopeful and an Army National Guard major who lost her legs in Iraq, who went on to lose to State Senator Peter Roskam in that race.
