520 1 $a"In this biography, June Breton Fisher recounts the untold story of the life of her grandfather, Henry Goldman. Complicated, brilliant, and utterly unpretentious, he was one of the true founders of Goldman Sachs and an innovator who established many of the practices of modern investment banking. Born into a time of great change, his life spans the birth of a multicultural America, two world wars, and the dawn of an era filled with astounding transformation in business and industry." "With levity and grace, Fisher evokes the formative years and early values of Goldman Sachs, tracing Henry Goldman's hard-won victories and often frustrating career with the firm, including the tensions between the Goldman and Sachs families, Henry's steadfast support of Germany during World War I, and his outspoken denunciation of Hitler's atrocities against European Jews in the lead-up to World War II. Together with his philanthropy, patronage of the arts, and friendships with luminaries like Albert Einstein, a portrait emerges of a fascinating man living in complicated times." "In our own time, as Wall Street seems to have gone astray, this look at its foundation is essential in understanding not only why some of the grand firms are left standing but also how a return to the values of its founding fathers might provide insight today. Henry Goldman's whole story is finally told here - a story that has shaped contemporary finance and continues to resonate."--BOOK JACKET.
