Short Biography

Jason "Jay" Gould (May 27, 1836 – December 2, 1892) was a leading American railroad developer and speculator. He was long vilified as an archetypal robber baron, whose success at business made him the ninth richest U.S. citizen in history, although some modern historians working from primary sources have discounted his portrayal by the contemporary press. Condé Nast Portfolio ranked Gould as the 8th worst American CEO of all time.
