John Doerr, a venture capitalist known for early investments in companies such as Amazon and Google, has become the latest victim of the hacker known as Guccifer, according to the Smoking Gun website.<\/p>\n
The hacker sent the online publication several emails from Doerr’s AOL email account as well as a screenshot of Doerr’s email address book, including Steve Jobs’ biographer Walter Isaacson, the Smoking Gun said.<\/p>\n
A spokesman for Doerr, the face of the high-profile venture-capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n
Guccifer rose to prominence earlier this year after leaking the emails of several Bush family members, including former President George W. Bush.<\/p>\n
The hacker has also accessed emails of former secretary of state Colin Powell and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n
