Sumner Redstone keeps his place on top of the annual Los Angeles Business Journal guesstimate of wealthiest Angelenos. Kirk Kerkorian held on to #2, but the news is that a woman — Barbara Davis — took over the #3 spot after the death of her husband, Marvin Davis. She is said to be worth $6.4 billion.
