Pat Saperstein Deputy Editor James Michael Cline, the finance executive who founded the Fandango movie ticketing service in 2000 and remained with the company until 2011, died Tuesday morning of an apparent suicide in Manhattan after jumping from the 20th floor of the Kimberly Hotel.
He was 64. The NYPD said in a statement that officers responded to the hotel on 50th Street at 10:19 a.m. “Upon arrival, officers found an unconscious and unresponsive male with injuries indicative of a fall from an elevated position.
The investigation remains ongoing.” The NYPD gave Cline’s address as Palm Beach, Fla., and real estate reports show he had purchased a $21 million property there in 2020.
After leaving Fandango, Cline ran several tech firms and venture capital firms, including hedge fund Bridgewater Associates, and founded companies including Accumen, Insureon and Accolade through his Accretive company, which had also invested in Fandango.
