Certainly one of the most powerful women in contemporary Hollywood, Kathleen Kennedy has been associated with a startling percentage of the top 20 highest grossing American films. In 1984 she co-founded the hugely successful production company, Amblin Entertainment, with Steven Spielberg and her husband Frank Marshall and served as its president until 1992. She co-executive produced such diverse high-profile fare as the popular "Back to the Future" trilogy (1985, 1989, 1990), the landmark adaptation of "The Color Purple" (1985), the technological breakthrough "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" (1988),
