Baruch the Counselor to Presidents and Philanthropist
Bernard Mannes Baruch rose to a premier adviser to U S presidents spanning Woodrow Wilson to Kennedy. He wielded substantial influence on economic policy while also funding philanthropy often anonymously. Health issues weakened him before his near ninety five birthday and he died from a heart attack. Baruch formed a lifelong friendship with Sir Winston Churchill begun at Versailles and his New York home served as Churchill’s US base during visits. He balanced conservative finance with broad influence on the economy and national policy.
