Biography

Milchan was born in Tel Aviv, Israel but grew up in Paris. She is the daughter of Arnon Milchan, the founder of Regency Enterprises, and Brigitte Jeanmaire, a French model. She attended Emerson College, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1994.[4] Milchan then relocated to Los Angeles to work in the entertainment industry.

Milchan began her film career in 1993 as an assistant at her father, Arnon Milchan's company New Regency, eventually working her way up to senior roles.[5] Arnon Milchan named his daughter vice president in 2000.[6] She left the company in the mid 2000s, but returned as Executive VP of production in 2011.[7] During her first 13-year stint at New Regency, Milchan was involved with films such as Heat, A Time to Kill, and L.A. Confidential.

In 2013, Milchan received her executive producer credit for The Wolf of Wall Street, but only after filing a lawsuit[8] against the main financing company for the film regarding producer credits and fees.[9] [10]

Milchan ran and oversaw the development and production of all of Emjag's projects, and is now the head of Crescent Line Productions, Inc.

She has three children.[11]
