We find the gravity dual of a marginal deformation of = 4 super Yang Mills, and discuss some of its properties. This deformation is intimately connected with an SL(2,) symmetry of the gravity theory. The SL(2,) transformation enables us to find the solutions in a simple way. These field theory deformations, sometimes called β deformations, can be viewed as arising from a star product. Our method works for any theory that has a gravity dual with a U(1) × U(1) global symmetry which is realized geometrically. These include the field theories that live on D3 branes at the conifold or other toric singularities, as well as their cascading versions.
