As Louis Eisner and actress-turned-fashion mogul Ashley Olsen finally tied the knot on December 28, 2022, we get to know his father Eric Eisner, and his family better.
Louis Eisner is a 34-year-old artist who hails from California. His father is an entertainment lawyer turned philanthropist, and his mother is jewelry designer Lisa Eisner, née Norris. He also has a brother called Charlie.
Eric Eisner grew up in Greenwich Village, Manhattan. He attended Columbia University and graduated from Columbia Law School in 1973.
Louis Eisner’s father has had a rich career, full of twists and turns that we explore below.
Eric Eisner oversaw the production of Beetlejuice and Risky Business
After law school, Eisner accepted an offer at the law firm Kaplan Livingston Goodwin Berkowitz & Selvin in Los Angeles, then the largest entertainment law firm in the world.
In 1980, Eric Eisner was recruited by film studio executive David Geffen to be president of his production company, The Geffen Film Company. He reportedly oversaw the production of huge films including Beetlejuice and Risky Business.
The Geffen Film Company no longer exists but David Geffen went on to co-found the leading animation studio Dreamworks.
Eric Eisner founded the non-profit Young Eisner Scholars
In 1998, Eric Eisner founded the non-profit Young Eisner Scholars or YES. The program identifies promising students from underserved communities and equips them with the resources, support, and academic skills required for success through high school, college, and career.
According to the charity’s website, Eric Eisner began working with academically promising children at Lennox Middle School in Lennox, CA, a small unincorporated area of Los Angeles County.
In 2010, YES expanded into a nationwide program with cohorts in New York, Chicago, and rural Appalachian North Carolina.

The programs aim to meet the academic, socio-emotional, and cultural needs of YES scholars at every educational stage. Each phase of YES programming develops a set of core skills that are believed to be essential to the Scholars’ growth and success.
Eric Eisner is married to Jewelry designer Lisa Eisner
Lisa Eisner married Eric in 1985 after MTV founder Bob Pittman introduced them. In a 2015 interview Alina S. Beruff, YES’ executive director, said: “Eric is famous in Los Angeles for his marriage.”
She added: “He stares at her, as in love with her today as he was when they got married. They bicker and wring each other’s necks just as much as anyone else. But they’re very close.”
Lisa is the creator of Lisa Eisner Jewelry. The New York Times described her pieces as ” knobby, organic, and spidery and often cast in bronze.”
She has also worked as a fashion editor, a stylist, a photographer, and a publisher.
Louis Eisner and Ashley Olsen’s relationship timeline
Louis Eisner and Ashley Olsen have been dating since 2017 but have kept their relationship as far away from the public eye as possible.
They only made their first public red carpet appearance together on September 23, 2021, when the two attended the YES 20th Anniversary Gala.
Marriage rumors spread in May 2022 when Ashley was spotted with a gold band on her finger – and as it turns out, the rumors were true!
Page Six confirmed that that pair got married in a small ceremony in Bel-Air, California on December 28, 2022.
