S.I. NEWHOUSE '03 IS FEATURED
IN THE DOCUMENTARY,
"BORN RICH," NOW AIRING ON HBO...
Haverford
graduate S.I. Newhouse ’03 is featured in the documentary“Born
Rich,” now airing on HBO. The film, which contains interviews
of several young heirs to large fortunes, was directed and produced
by a long-time Newhouse friend, Jamie Johnson, himself an heir
to the Johnson & Johnson pharmaceutical empire. Newhouse
and Johnson grew up together, and both attended the Pingry School
where they shared an art class. “Jamie came up with the
idea for this film while he was at N.Y.U., and I was a freshman
at Haverford,” recalls Newhouse. “It was his first
film project, and he asked if I would agree to be interviewed.”
The young director interviewed S.I. three times, including once
while Newhouse competed with his Haverford fencing teammates
during a match at Drew University, and again during his senior
year on campus. “I was flattered that he asked me,”
says Newhouse.
As a result of his friend’s
project and the four film courses he took while at Haverford,
S.I. says he would eventually like to study film theory. For
now, he’s applying his English degree and creative writing
concentration from Haverford to the world of publishing, specifically
through an executive training program at the Times-Picayune
in New Orleans.
