Anthony Scaramucci (born January 6, 1964) is an American entrepreneur, financier, political figure, and author. On January 12, 2017, Scaramucci was named Assistant to President Donald Trump and Director of the White House Office of Public Liaison and Intergovernmental Affairs. On January 31, 2017, however, Trump's chief of staff Reince Priebus called Scaramucci "to tell him he should pull out of consideration," according to Politico.
Following the 2016 election, Scaramucci served on the Presidential Transition Team Executive Committee. In 2005, Scaramucci founded global investment firm SkyBridge Capital, serving as co-managing partner before selling the company in early 2017 to take a role in the Trump administration.
Scaramucci also previously served as chairman of the SALT Conference, host of a financial television show Wall Street Week and contributor to the Fox News Channel.
Scaramucci was born on January 6, 1964, in Long Island, New York, and had a middle-class upbringing. His father was a construction worker. He earned a B.A. in Economics from Tufts University and a J.D. from Harvard Law School. He is of Italian descent.
After graduating from law school, Scaramucci began his career at Goldman Sachs, where he worked from 1989 to 1996 and held positions in its Investment Banking, Equities, and Private Wealth Management divisions. After being hired, fired, and rehired in a single year, Scaramucci left Goldman in 1996 to launch Oscar Capital Management with his colleague Andrew Boszhardt. 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.
In 2005, Scaramucci founded SkyBridge Capital, a global alternative investment firm.
