Stephen Kevin "Steve" Bannon (born November 27, 1953) is an American campaign manager, businessman, and media executive.

He became chief executive officer of the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump in August 2016.[1][2] Bannon has been named chief strategist and Senior Counselor for the Presidency of Donald Trump.[3]

Bannon was executive chair of Breitbart News, a far-right[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] news, opinion and commentary website[5][15] which according to several media and people, Bannon himself included, is associated with the Internet-based alternative right, or alt-right.[5][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] However, Bannon has also derided the term alt-right.[23] He took a leave of absence from Breitbart in order to work for the campaign.[4][24] In preparation for serving as chief strategist, he plans to resign from Breitbart.[4]

Early life, family. and education

Stephen Kevin Bannon was born on November 27, 1953, in Norfolk, Virginia, into a working-class, Irish Catholic, pro-Kennedy, pro-union family of Democrats.[25][26] He graduated from Virginia Tech in 1976 and holds a master's degree in National Security Studies from Georgetown University. In 1983, Bannon received an M.B.A. degree with honors from Harvard Business School.[27]

Service in U.S. Navy

Bannon was an officer in the United States Navy for seven years in the late 1970s and early 1980s, serving on the destroyer USS Paul F. Foster as a Surface Warfare Officer in the Pacific Fleet and stateside as a special assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations at the Pentagon.[28]

Business career

Investment banking

After his military service, Bannon worked at Goldman Sachs as an investment banker in the Mergers & Acquisitions Department.[29] In 1990, Bannon and several colleagues from Goldman Sachs launched Bannon & Co., a boutique investment bank specializing in media. Through Bannon & Co., Bannon negotiated the sale of Castle Rock Entertainment to Ted Turner. As payment, Bannon & Co. accepted a financial stake in five television shows, including Seinfeld. Société Générale purchased Bannon & Co. in 1998.[30]

Environmental sector

In 1993, while still managing Bannon & Co., Bannon was made acting director of Earth-science research project Biosphere 2 in Oracle, Arizona. Under Bannon, the project shifted emphasis from researching space exploration and colonization toward pollution and global warming. He left the project in 1995.[31][32]

Film and media

After the sale of Bannon & Co., Bannon became an executive producer in the film and media industry in Hollywood, California. Bannon produced 18 films[33] from the 1992 Sean Penn drama The Indian Runner to executive producing Julie Taymor's 1999 film Titus. Bannon became a partner with entertainment industry executive Jeff Kwatinetz at The Firm, Inc., a film and television management company.[30] In 2004, Bannon made a documentary about Ronald Reagan titled In the Face of Evil. Through the making and screening of this film, Bannon was introduced to Peter Schweizer and publisher Andrew Breitbart, who would later describe him as the Leni Riefenstahl of the Tea Party movement.[30] He was involved in the financing and production of a number of films, including Fire from the Heartland: The Awakening of the Conservative Woman, The Undefeated (on Sarah Palin), and Occupy Unmasked. Bannon also hosts a radio show (Breitbart News Daily) on a Sirius XM satellite radio channel.[34]

Bannon is also executive chair and co-founder of the Government Accountability Institute, where he helped orchestrate the publication of the book Clinton Cash.[30][35] In 2015, Bannon was ranked No. 19 on Mediaite's list of the "25 Most Influential in Political News Media 2015".[36]

Bannon convinced Goldman Sachs to invest in a company known as Internet Gaming Entertainment.[37] Following a lawsuit, the company rebranded as Affinity Media and Bannon took over as CEO. From 2007 through 2011, Bannon served as chair and CEO of Affinity Media.[37]

Breitbart News

Bannon was a founding member of the board of Breitbart News,[38] a far-right[4][5][15][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] news, opinion and commentary website which, according to Philip Elliott and Zeke J. Miller of Time (magazine), has "pushed racist, sexist, xenophobic and anti-Semitic material into the vein of the alternative right".[5][16][18][19][20][21][39]

In March 2012, after founder Andrew Breitbart's death, Bannon became executive chair of Breitbart News LLC, the parent company of Breitbart News.[24][40][41] Under his leadership, Breitbart took a more alt-right and nationalistic approach toward its agenda.[42] Bannon declared the website "the platform for the alt-right" in 2016.[16] Bannon identifies as a conservative.[43][44][45] Speaking about his role at Breitbart, Bannon said: "We think of ourselves as virulently anti-establishment, particularly 'anti-' the permanent political class."[46]

The New York Times described Breitbart News under Bannon's leadership as a "curiosity of the fringe right wing", with "ideologically driven journalists", that is a source of controversy "over material that has been called misogynist, xenophobic, and racist." The newspaper also noted how Breitbart was a "potent voice" for Donald Trump's presidential campaign.[47]

Donald Trump campaign

On August 17, 2016, Bannon was appointed Chief Executive of Donald Trump's campaign to become President of the United States.[40][43][48][49] He went on leave from Breitbart in order to take the new job.[24]

Trump administration

On November 13, 2016, Bannon was appointed chief strategist and senior counselor to President-elect Donald Trump.[50] This appointment drew opposition from the Anti-Defamation League, the Council on American–Islamic Relations, the Southern Poverty Law Center, Democrat Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, and some Republican strategists, because of statements in Breitbart News that were alleged to be racist or anti-Semitic.[1][2][51][52][53]

Ben Shapiro,[53][54][55] Bernard Marcus of the Republican Jewish Coalition,[56] Morton Klein[57] and the Zionist Organization of America,[56] Pamela Geller,[58] Shmuley Boteach,[59] and David Horowitz[60] defended Bannon against the allegations of antisemitism. Alan Dershowitz first defended Bannon and said there was no evidence he was anti-semitic,[61][62] but in a later piece stated that Bannon and Breitbart had made bigoted statements against Muslims, women, and others.[63] The ADL said "we are not aware of any anti-Semitic statements from Bannon", while adding "under his stewardship, Breitbart has emerged as the leading source for the extreme views of a vocal minority who peddle bigotry and promote hate."[64] Shapiro, who previously worked for Breitbart, said that he has no evidence of Bannon being racist or an anti-Semite, but that he was "happy to pander to those people and make common cause with them in order to transform conservatism into European far-right nationalist populism",[65] an assertion supported by other sources and his alluding to Front National politician Marion Maréchal-Le Pen as "the new rising star".[66]

On November 15, 2016, Rhode Island Representative David Cicilline released a letter to Trump signed by 169 Democratic House Representatives urging him to rescind his appointment of Bannon. The letter stated that appointing Bannon "sends a disturbing message about what kind of president Donald Trump wants to be",[67][68][69] because his "ties to the White Nationalist movement have been well documented"; it went on to present several examples of Breitbart News' alleged xenophobia.[70] Bannon denied being a white nationalist and claimed, rather, that he is an "economic nationalist."[71]

On November 18, 2016, during his first interview not conducted by Breitbart Media since the 2016 Presidential Election, Bannon remarked on some criticisms made about him, stating that "Darkness is good: Dick Cheney. Darth Vader. Satan. That's power. It only helps us when they get it wrong. When they're blind to who we are and what we're doing."[72][23] The quote was published widely in the media.[73][72][74][75][76] The Daily Mail said the quote showed that "Bannon liked being characterized as a villain because he believed it showed the cluelessness of liberals and the media",[74] while The Independent said that Bannon had "beaten the liberal media to the punch by comparing himself to the devil".[76] In the same interview, Bannon declared "I'm not a white nationalist. I'm a nationalist. I'm an economic nationalist".[74][72]

Donald Trump responded to the ongoing controversy over Bannon's appointment in an interview with The New York Times, saying: "I’ve known Steve Bannon a long time. If I thought he was a racist, or alt-right, or any of the things that we can, you know, the terms we can use, I wouldn’t even think about hiring him."[77]

On October 6th, 2016, the Campaign Legal Center filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission which alleged "illegal in-kind contributions to Donald J. Trump for America, Inc." on the order of $280,000.[78][79] On December 2, 2016, the Campaign Legal Center provided additional evidence of this violation to the Federal Election Commission, namely that payments were made to Glittering Steel LLC, a company with an address identical to Bannon’s consulting firm, Bannon Strategic Advisors, Inc.[80][81]

Personal life

Bannon's first marriage was to Cathleen Suzanne Houff, born 1955.[82] Bannon and Houff had a daughter, Maureen, in 1988.[83][84] They were divorced.[51]

Bannon's second marriage was to Mary Louise Piccard, a former investment banker, in April 1995. Their twin daughters were born three days later.[85] Piccard and Bannon divorced in 1997.

Bannon's third marriage was to Diane Clohesy. That marriage also ended in divorce in 2009.[86]

Bannon was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence, battery and dissuading a witness in early January 1996, after Piccard accused Bannon of domestic abuse. The charges were later dropped when his now ex-wife did not appear in court.[87] In an article in the New York Times, Piccard stated her absence was due to threats made to her by Bannon and Bannon's lawyer: "Mr. Bannon, she said, told her that “if I went to court he and his attorney would make sure that I would be the one who was guilty"... Mr. Bannon’s lawyer, she said, “threatened me,” telling her that if Mr. Bannon went to jail, she “would have no money and no way to support the children."[88] During the divorce proceedings, Piccard also stated that Bannon had made antisemitic remarks about choice of schools, saying that he did not want to send his children to The Archer School for Girls because there were too many Jews at the school and Jews raise their children to be "whiny brats". Bannon's spokesperson denied the accusation, noting that he had chosen to send both his children to the Archer School.[87][89][90][91][92]
