Hollywood and Washington Mourn Jack Valenti

May 2nd, 2007 // 1 Comment

The funeral of Jack Valenti, who served as chief of the Motion Picture Association, brought out the likes of Hollywood royalty, like Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Kurt and Michael Douglas and Michael Eisner.

Five days after his death at 85, friends and family members honored Valenti at the Cathedral of Saint Matthew the Apostle, just a few blocks from the White House where he served as assistant to President Lyndon Johnson.

Politicians and celebrities alike mourned the passing of Valenti, who will be interned at Arlington National Cemetery May 9.
