Son of Apollo Global Management co-founder Leon Black, and a recurring entry in Jeffrey Epstein's own calendar. Epstein's schedule carries repeated afternoon appointments with him, notes his birthday party in Southampton, and Epstein offered to have portraits painted of him and his brother Joshua. He is identified as Leon Black's son by the family trust schedules in the corpus rather than by inference from the surname.
