Masa muda

Kasus tersebut, diajukan di New York, melalui beberapa banding, akhirnya mencapai Mahkamah Agung AS pada tahun 1962. Pengadilan memutuskan bahwa doa tersebut tidak konstitusional di bawah Amandemen Pertama, dalam kasus penting Enger v. Vitale.[4]

In 1992, he co-founded Caravan Pictures with Roger Birnbaum, which had a production deal with The Walt Disney Studios. Roth moved on to be Disney studio chief on August 24, 1994.[7] Disney CEO Michael Eisner was so set on replacing Jeffrey Katzenberg as Disney studio chief with Roth that he forgave the $15 million cost overrun debt for I Love Trouble and paid Roth $40 million of fees for 21 unproduced films under the deal.[8]
Roth, who was ranked 6th in Premiere Magazine's 2003 Hollywood Power List, produced the 76th annual Academy Awards. Roth announced that in October 2007, when Revolution's distribution deal with Sony Pictures ended, Revolution Studios would close and he joined Sony as a producer.
