Jeffrey Epstein's rise began at the Dalton School under Donald Barr before he moved to Bear Stearns under Alan Greenberg. During this period, Epstein became a tax evasion expert for wealthy clients like Edgar Bronfman while the bank's legal counsel was future CIA Director Bill Casey. Following an SEC investigation, Epstein began orbiting Iran-Contra figures like Adnan Khashoggi, Roy Cohn, and Robert Keith Gray.

Jeffrey Epstein's transition from teaching to finance involved a mysterious hiring at Bear Stearns by CEO Alan Greenberg. Epstein eventually left the firm following an SEC investigation into insider trading involving Seagrams owner Edgar Bronfman. This period marked the beginning of Epstein's deep financial relationship with Leslie Wexner, the founder of L Brands, who granted Epstein broad power of attorney over his multi-billion dollar retail empire.
