Tough year for cofounder of private equity colossus TPG (formerly Texas Pacific Group). Firm provided $2 billion cash infusion to Washington Mutual bank for discounted shares in April; common stock down 70% since. Met James Coulter while working for Robert Bass. Pair left to pursue first deal together: propped up Continental Airlines with $66 million investment, stake worth $700 million 5 years later. Started Texas Pacific Group in 1992. Bonderman founded Fort Worth office, Coulter settled in San Francisco. Thrive on dizzyingly complex deals. Winners: Burger King, J. Crew, Petco. Manage $60 billion with affiliates today. « less
