#17: David O. Selznick (The Selznick Hollywood Dynasty)
David O. Selznick was a brilliant film producer who gave us the classic movie Gone with the Wind in 1939. Unfortunately, he suffered from a gambling addiction that destroyed his family’s financial stability. His huge debts to bookmakers forced his studio and relatives to liquidate their valuable film copyrights just to keep him out of trouble.
