Others, it appears, didn’t get off so easily,” the article read. “For any number of young men who sought to join the world’s greatest boy bands, Big Poppa’s attentions were an open secret, the price some paid for fame.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pearlman had denied the allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pearlman started in the aviation industry but shifted focus in the early ’90s to music. As NPR’s Rebecca Hersher told our Newscast unit, “Pearlman created the Backstreet Boys in 1993, after funding a talent search for young musicians in the Orlando area. The quintet went on to become the best-selling boy band ever.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He later managed other successful boy bands such as *NSYNC, LFO, Take 5 and O-Town. But as Becky reported, “his pop empire fell apart when he was accused of pocketing the profits of his young proteges, and Florida regulators uncovered a multimillion-dollar Ponzi scheme.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pearlman “was ultimately sued by every act he represented except one,” \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7480171/lou-pearlman-dead\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to Billboard\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/lou-pearlman-backstreet-boys-n-sync-svengali-dead-at-62-w435453\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">As Rolling Stone reported\u003c/a>, he fled the country but was taken into custody in Bali in 2007 and “indicted on charges of conspiracy, money laundering and making false statements.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The elaborate scheme involved “nearly 2,000 investors, many of them elderly Florida retirees,” and took place over the course of 15 years, as \u003cem>Vanity Fair\u003c/em> reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/jtimberlake/status/767366499585568768\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/IamCKirkpatrick/status/767167056416542722\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reaction to his death from former band members hints at complicated relationships. “I hope he found some peace.

After attending the Parsons School of Design in New York City, Terzian moved back to the Bay Area in 1951 to pursue a career in interior design.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A sculptor, Terzian was among a group of artists who were booted from a San Francisco warehouse space that was demolished to make way for Levi’s Plaza in the early ’70s. But being booted from the space did little to stop Terzian’s artistic pursuits. He doubled down in 1974 and started a new company, Patterns Ltd., which created found object-based industrial design products that ranged from furniture to wall installations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Seeing the potential in a superfund site\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years after the Hunter’s Point Naval Shipyard was decommissioned in 1974, a private contractor began subletting the leftover structures to various people, including Terzian, who saw the hidden potential of the stark military buildings. They were cheap to rent and had good light — though not much else. The buildings were in the middle of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.asbestos.com/shipyards/hunters-point-naval/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">superfund site\u003c/a>, rife with industrial contamination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the ensuing years, with the help of his son David and daughter Paula, Terzian converted the shipyard’s barracks into artist studios. By 1984, he had created about 300 such spaces, and in the process, established The Point, one of the largest artists’ colonies in the United States.
