Family Tree

The illustrious Zanuck dynasty is a force to be reckoned with in Hollywood and beyond. It began with Darryl F. Zanuck, Co-Founder and Chairman of 20th Century Fox, who rose to fame from humble beginnings as an alcoholic night clerk's son. His grandson, Dean Zanuck, has continued the family legacy by producing a host of successful feature films. His daughter, Lili Fini Zanuck, has also made a name for herself as a producer and director. Linda Harrison, an actress and former Miss Berlin, completed the trifecta by marrying Richard D. Zanuck in 1968. His career as a producer and production manager spanned over twenty-five years and included classics such as Driving Miss Daisy, Cocoon and Deep Impact. Together, this royal family has left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry.
