Born
Getty, the oil billionaire famous for his meanness, opened his ranch house at Malibu as a museum in 1954 and built the Getty Villa there in 1974, though he never visited it. On his death in 1976 he left most of his fortune to the museum trust, making it one of the richest arts institutions in the world. The Getty Center and Villa in Los Angeles are free to enter, with a parking charge.
