About Me

'Star Wars' creator George Lucas has largely retired from filmmaking since he sold his Lucasfilm to Disney in 2012 for $4.1 billion in stock and cash. Lucas is now focused on philanthropy: his charitable family foundation has more than $1 billion in assets. Lucas attended junior college in his hometown of Modesto, California where his parents ran a stationary store, before attending USC. He founded Lucasfilm, his production company, in 1971 and built his fortune through his movies and their merchandise. The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art will open in Los Angeles in 2026 and is entirely funded by Lucas and his wife, Mellody Hobson.
