H aim Saban is an Israeli-American self-made billionaire with a highly successful career in media and entertainment. He is best known for bringing the Japanese television show *Super Sentai* to the West and transforming it into the global pop culture phenomenon, *Mighty Morphin Power Rangers*. The massive success of the show and its merchandise in the 1990s made him a fortune.

He and his partner at News Corp. later formed Fox Family Worldwide, a children's television channel, which they sold to The Walt Disney Company in 2001 for over $5 billion, a deal that massively increased his wealth. He later repurchased the Power Rangers brand from Disney, before selling it again. He has also been a major player in the European media market, having held a large stake in the German broadcaster ProSiebenSat.1. He is a major and highly influential political donor, particularly to the Democratic Party and pro-Israel causes.
