Barron Hilton Paris’s Grandfather Pictures Photos

Barron Hilton is shown in this undated publicity photo released to Reuters December 26, 2007. Hilton on Wednesday announced plans to donate 97 percent of his $2.3 billion fortune to charity. That wealth includes $1.2 billion Barron Hilton stands to earn from both the recent sale of Hilton Hotels Corp. — started by his father Conrad in 1919 when he bought a small hotel in Cisco, Texas — and pending sale of the world’s biggest casino company, Harrah’s Entertainment Inc. That money will be placed in a charitable trust that will eventually benefit the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, raising its total value to about $4.5 billion, the foundation said in a statement.
