Fred completed his studies at Harvard Business School with "High Honors
" and was named a George F. Baker Scholar; he graduated number two in a class of almost 700. He spent the next two years as an associate at the management consulting firm of Booz Allen & Hamilton
in Chicago
following which he obtained a position in the corporate finance department of the investment banking firm of Shearson Hammill & Co.
first on Wall Street and then back in Chicago. Fred next joined Drexel Burnham

the jewelry chain; Sun Chemical; and Calvin Klein Industries. Fred left Drexel to eventually start his own investment firm and build on his established reputation as an experienced investment professional. He was held
