Anthony Scaramucci (/skɛrəˈmtʃ/ skerr-ə-MOO-chee; born January 6, 1964), also known as "The Mooch",[1] is an American financier and political figure.

He worked at Goldman Sachs's Investment Banking, Equities, and Private Wealth Management divisions from 1989 to 1996. On leaving Goldman Sachs, he founded Oscar Capital Management, and in 2005, he founded the investment firm SkyBridge Capital.

On July 21, 2017, Scaramucci was appointed White House Communications Director. Ten days later, on July 31, he was removed from the post by President Trump before being sworn-in, likely off the recommendation of his new Chief of Staff, General John Kelly who started that day.

Early life

Scaramucci was born into an Italian-American, Roman Catholic family on January 6, 1964, on Long Island, New York, the son of Alexander and Marie DeFeo Scaramucci, and had a middle-class upbringing. His grandfather, Alessandro Scaramucci, emigrated to the USA from Gualdo Tadino, Italy.[2] His father was a construction worker.[3] Scaramucci has an older brother, David, and a sister, Susan.[4][5]

He graduated in 1982 from Paul D. Schreiber Senior High School in Port Washington,[6] where he served as student council president.[7] He earned a B.A. in economics at Tufts University and a J.D. at Harvard Law School.[8] Scaramucci credits his time and education at Harvard Law School as a springboard for his successful career.[9]

Career in investment banking

After graduating from law school, Scaramucci began his career at Goldman Sachs,[9] where he worked from 1989 to 1996 and held positions in its Investment Banking, Equities, and Private Wealth Management divisions.[10][11]

Oscar Capital Management

After being hired, fired, and rehired in a single year, Scaramucci left Goldman in 1996[12] to launch Oscar Capital Management with his colleague Andrew Boszhardt.[13] In 2001, Oscar Capital was sold to Neuberger Berman, and upon Neuberger Berman's sale to Lehman Brothers in 2003, Scaramucci served as a managing director in the firm's Investment Management division.[10][14]

SkyBridge Capital

In 2005, Scaramucci founded SkyBridge Capital, a global alternative investment firm.[15] Scaramucci was the chairman of the SkyBridge Alternatives "SALT" Conference, launched in 2009 and held in Las Vegas every spring.[16]

In 2011, Scaramucci received the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award New York Award in the Financial Services category,[17] and in 2016 was ranked #85 in Worth magazine's "Power 100: The 100 Most Powerful People in Global Finance".[18]

In May 2014, SkyBridge licensed the rights to Wall Street Week, a financial television news program formerly hosted by Louis Rukeyser on PBS, installing Scaramucci as host. Broadcast rights were transferred to Fox Broadcasting Company in 2016.[19]

On January 17, 2017, SkyBridge announced a majority stake sale to RON Transatlantic EG and HNA Capital (U.S.) Holding, a Chinese conglomerate with close ties to China's Communist Party; with the announcement, Scaramucci stepped down from his co-management role and ended his affiliation with SkyBridge and SALT.[20][21]

Career in politics

Scaramucci supported the presidential campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.[22] In 2008, Scaramucci also served as a fundraiser for President Barack Obama.[23] In September 2010, however, Scaramucci asked Obama at a CNBC Town Hall meeting when he was going to "stop whacking Wall Street like a piñata."[24]

Scaramucci has tweeted at various times that he has "always been for strong gun control laws", and that "Republicans should support gay marriage".[25]

He served as the national finance co-chair for Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign.[22]

In 2015 on a Fox News television appearance, Scaramucci called Trump a "hack politician" whose rhetoric is "anti-American and very, very divisive." He further warned Trump to "cut it out now" and "stop all this crazy rhetoric." In December 2015, Scaramucci criticized Trump's call for a border wall between Mexico and the U.S. He also criticized Trump for "making a fundamental mistake of trying to blame all of Islam and all Muslims for what is the ideology and the actions of a minority."[22]

Ahead of the 2016 election, Scaramucci wrote on Twitter that he hoped Hillary Clinton would be the next president.[22] During the 2016 presidential election, Scaramucci first endorsed Scott Walker and later Jeb Bush. In May 2016, after both Walker and Bush had withdrawn from the race, he signed on to Donald Trump's political campaign by joining the Trump Finance Committee.[26] In November 2016 he was appointed to President-elect Trump's Presidential Transition Team Executive Committee.[27]

Nomination to Office of Public Liaison

On January 12, 2017, Scaramucci was named Assistant to President Trump and director of the White House Office of Public Liaison and Intergovernmental Affairs.[28] On January 23 he told New York magazine that the "thing I have learned about these people in Washington is they have no money. So what happens when they have no fucking money is they write about what seat they are in and what the title is. Fucking congressmen act like that. They are fucking jackasses".[28]

Fox Business reported on January 31, 2017, that "Scaramucci's delayed appointment underscores some of the tensions building inside the Trump White House ... as various aides and advisers continue to jockey for his attention and to retain and expand their power".[29] According to Politico, on January 31, 2017, with Scaramucci's appointment still pending approval by the United States Office of Government Ethics (OGE), Trump's chief of staff Reince Priebus called Scaramucci "to tell him he should pull out of consideration". They reported that Priebus opposed Scaramucci's appointment because of Scaramucci's stake in Skybridge Capital.[30] Several senior White House officials questioned the significance of any internal feuding in Scaramucci's appointment delay, citing instead the months required to conclude his sale of SkyBridge.[31] Reuters reported on February 1 that Scaramucci would not get the director role.[32] In a February 2017 New York magazine article, Priebus was quoted as saying rumors that he interfered with the hiring were "not true".[33]

On March 6, 2017, the White House announced the appointment of Ideagen founder and former CEO George Sifakis as director for the Office of Public Liaison,[34] instead of Scaramucci. The next day, Politico reported that "White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus is still considering offering financier Anthony Scaramucci a role" in the administration.[30]

U.S. Export-Import Bank

Effective June 19, 2017, Scaramucci was named senior vice president and chief strategy officer for the U.S. Export-Import Bank. He was also still under consideration for a post as ambassador to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.[35][36]

CNN retraction and apology

On June 26, 2017, three network investigative journalists—Thomas Frank, Eric Lichtblau, and Lex Haris—resigned from CNN over a false, later retracted Trump–Russia story that connected Scaramucci to a $10 billion Russian investment fund. The network apologized to Scaramucci and said the online story did not meet their editorial standards. Scaramucci said the original story was not true, and accepted CNN's apology. [37][38]

White House Communications Director

On July 21, 2017, the Trump Administration named him as White House Communications Director, to take office on August 15.[39][40] A number of news outlets noted that the White House announcement of Scaramucci said he would "report directly to the President", and not to the chief of staff as White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer had.[41][42] On the day that Scaramucci's appointment was announced, Spicer resigned.[43] The New York Times reported that he had done so after advising Trump that he "vehemently disagreed" with the appointment of Scaramucci.[43][44] Trump's chief of staff Reince Priebus also had "vehement objections" to his hiring.[45]

In a July 26, 2017, phone call to Ryan Lizza of The New Yorker, Scaramucci said he would fire everyone on the White House communications staff if Lizza did not reveal the source of leaked information about who had attended a dinner with Trump.[46] Scaramucci also accused Priebus of being "a leaker" who had committed "a felony", referred to Priebus as "a fucking paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac", and said that Priebus "would resign soon". Priebus did not respond to Lizza's request for comment. Scaramucci also said "I'm not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own cock" in an apparent reference to his lack of interest in media attention.[42][47] The following day, Scaramucci tweeted, "I sometimes use colorful language. I will refrain in this arena but not give up the passionate fight for Donald Trump's agenda."[47]

During the interview and in a tweet immediately afterward, Scaramucci said that he had contacted or would be contacting the FBI and the Department of Justice, asking them to investigate Priebus for allegedly "leaking" his financial-disclosure form to a Politico reporter. Scaramucci later deleted the tweet. Lizza said the form was obtained from publicly available data at the U.S. Export-Import Bank.[48]

On July 28, Priebus' resignation as chief of staff was announced; Priebus said that he had resigned on July 27. Also on July 28, Trump announced that he had named retired general John F. Kelly as the new White House Chief of Staff.[49]

On July 31, 2017, Scaramucci was dismissed by President Donald Trump from his role as communications director. According to The New York Times, this was done at Kelly's request.[50][51] An official White House statement indicated that Scaramucci had tendered his resignation "to give Chief of Staff John Kelly a clean slate and the ability to build his own team."[52] Scaramucci's tenure of six days, from his unofficial start date on July 25 through his departure on July 31, is the shortest in history for that position, breaking the former record of 11 days that had been held by Jack Koehler in the Reagan administration.[40]

Other activities

In 2010, Scaramucci paid $100,000 to have Skybridge Capital's logo and two cameo appearances in the film Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.[53]

He is the author of three books:

  • Goodbye Gordon Gekko: How to Find Your Fortune Without Losing Your Soul[54][55]
  • The Little Book of Hedge Funds: What You Need to Know About Hedge Funds but the Managers Won't Tell You[56]
  • Hopping Over the Rabbit Hole: How Entrepreneurs Turn Failure Into Success[57]

Beginning in March 2016, Scaramucci served as host of the financial television show Wall Street Week[58]; he joined Fox Business Network as a contributor in 2014.[59]

Scaramucci is the vice chair of the Kennedy Center Corporate Fund Board and a trustee of the United States Olympic & Paralympic Foundation.[60] He is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Scaramucci was a member of the New York City Financial Services Advisory Committee from 2007 to 2012.[61]

In April 2016, Scaramucci and two other New York Mets fans bought Mike Piazza's jersey from the September 21, 2001, game against the Atlanta Braves, the first professional baseball game played in New York following the 9/11 attacks. The jersey was purchased in a private auction for $365,000, the highest price ever paid for a modern-day jersey. The new owners allowed the jersey to be displayed on a rotating basis among the 9/11 Memorial Museum, Citi Field, and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.[62][63]

Personal life

Scaramucci has three children from his marriage to first wife, Lisa Miranda; they separated in 2011 after 23 years of marriage, and their divorce was finalized in 2014.[53][64]

Scaramucci's second marriage was to Deidre Ball. Ball worked in investor relations for SkyBridge Capital until Scaramucci sold the firm. The couple first dated in 2011 and married on July 11, 2014,[4] after having their first child together in early 2014. Ball filed for divorce from Scaramucci citing her dislike of Donald Trump as a reason[65] in early July 2017 when she was eight months pregnant with their second child, to whom she gave birth on July 24, 2017.[53]
