Books like The billionaire who wasn't by Conor O'Clery


Chuck Feeney, born in Elizabeth, New Jersey, rose from a blue‑copper Irish American family, served in the Korean War, and founded Duty Free Shoppers, the world’s largest duty‑free retail chain. By 1988 he was named the 24th richest American by Forbes, yet he had already donated his entire fortune to Atlantic Philanthropies. His philanthropy remained hidden until 1997, when he sold his duty‑free interests, revealing his status as a mystery philanthropist. In 2005 he appeared to promote a giving‑oriented biography. Now in his mid‑seventies, Feeney is committed to ensuring his foundation spends the remaining $4 billion in his lifetime.
