 **George Walton Lucas Jr.** is an American filmmaker and philanthropist. Lucas is best known for creating the //Star Wars// and //Indiana Jones// franchises and founding Lucasfilm, LucasArts, Industrial Light & Magic, and THX. He served as chairman of Lucasfilm before selling it to The Walt Disney Company in 2012. Lucas is one of history's most financially successful filmmakers and has been nominated for four [[oscars|Academy Awards]]. Lucas personally directed or conceived 10 of the 100 highest-grossing movies at the North American box office, adjusted for ticket-price inflation. Lucas is considered to be one of the most significant figures of the 20th-century New Hollywood movement, and a pioneer of the modern blockbuster. Despite this, he has remained an independent filmmaker away from Hollywood for most of his career. **George Walton Lucas Jr.** is an American filmmaker and philanthropist.
