"I checked Michael Medved too.Michael Medved, the friend to slumlords?
He invested in slumlord apartments that actually listed a labrador (yes, a dog) named Grover Black as the President.
I think somebody got jail time in that one." - calcowgirl
I don't know about the "friend" part. He was named as an 'investor', meaning owner.
So... I guess that makes him a slumlord, although the buildings were managed by others.
