Barry Diller and wife Diane von Furstenberg have made a sizable donation to the Motion Picture & Television Fund in the form of $30 million.
“Seems impossible to me to have had success in the entertainment industry and not strongly support the MPTF,” Diller said in a statement after fellow board member George Clooney made the announcement Tuesday.
The MPTF has helped hundreds of industry workers struggling with tough times for the past 90 years, providing health and social care services and operating in its historic Woodland Hills, Calif., retirement home, where Mary Astor, Hattie McDaniel, Johnny Weismuller and other stars of Hollywood’s golden past once resided.
