Weintraub’s health had been failing as of late, and he passed at his Palm Springs home with family by his side.
Weintraub’s been a giant in music and movies for decades — producing, promoting, and managing for everyone from Sinatra to Led Zeppelin … to Bob Dylan, Elvis and John Denver. In addition to the ‘Ocean’s’ movies, starring Brad Pitt and George Clooney — Weintraub produced all the “Karate Kid” flicks. He was currently working on the new “Tarzan” movie, due out next year.
