'''Peter Franklin Paul''' is the Hollywood entrepreneur and former international lawyer who co-founded Stan Lee Media with Spider Man creator Stan Lee.

Paul hired Grammy producer Gary Smith to produce the largest private concert ever produced and unseen by the public. The Gala was also the largest fund-raising event for [[Hillary Clinton]]'s Senate campaign. Hillary Clinton's efforts to hide Paul's role as her largest campaign contributor resulted in the criminal prosecution of her finance director and the [[FEC]] settlement with her campaign treasurer that forced an admission of [http://www.hillcap.org filing false reports] that hid more than $721,000 contributed by Paul.

==Paul's Pre-Clinton Career==
In 1998, Paul liberated his close friend, creator of Spider Man, X-Men et al Stan Lee, from Marvel Comics so they could found an online superhero production and animation studio, Stan Lee Media. By 2000, Stan Lee Media became the leading online super hero animation studio in Hollywood. It employed 165 producers, animators, artists and writers and won the Web Award for the best Entertainment Portal on the web in 2000. SLM went public in August, 1999 and by February, 2000, the company had a market value of $360 million. Paul used his internet wealth to attempt to hire Bill Clinton to work with him and the company when Clinton was to leave the White House in January, 2001.
According to [http://www.hillcap.org/images/Peter_Paul_Declaration_032606.pdf allegations in Paul's landmark fraud lawsuit ] against the Clintons, Bill Clinton's interference with Paul's Japanese partner, who Clinton secretly went into business with through his liaison Jim Levin in November, 2000, resulted in the loss of promised funding for SLM in November, 2000, when the NASDQ collapse shuttered more than 250 internet companies. Stan Lee Media closed in December, 2000 as a result and Paul relocated to Brazil where he had a language company since 1997.
From Brazil Paul began blowing the whistle on the Clintons and others in February, 2001. In June, 2001, Paul was indicted in New York for one count of violating SEC Regulation 10(b)5 in manipulating the price of Stan Lee Media stock in order to save the company.
