About the Author
Andrew Carnegie was a nineteenth-century steel tycoon who became one of the twentieth century's most famous philanthropists. His life story is a rags-to-riches account matched by few in United States history. After his retirement he became a philanthropist who donated hundreds of millions of mostrar mais dollars and created more than 20 organizations dedicated to improving the human condition. He also created Carnegie Corporation of New York, endowing it with the largest single philanthropic trust ever established up to that time in order to support benefactions after his death. He died in 1919 at Shadowbrook, his estate in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts. mostrar menos
