About Daniel Ziff
Daniel Ziff and brothers Robert and Dirk inherited a fortune that dates back to 1927 when their grandfather cofounded publishing company Ziff Davis.
Daniel's late father, William Jr., built up Ziff Davis, which became best known for such trade publications as PC Magazine and Car and Driver.
The publishing business was sold for $1.4 billion in 1994.
The brothers created Ziff Brothers Investments and greatly expanded their inheritance with hedge funds in the U.S. and in London.
Ziff Brothers Investments ceased operations in 2014; the brothers are reportedly investing with former employees of their hedge funds.
