The Rockefellers and their Legacy

The Rockfellers and Their Legacy: The Hidden Influence of One Wealthy Family with Dawn Johnson

The Rockefellers are an American industrial, political and banking family who own one of the world’s largest fortunes. Their fortune was made in the petroleum industry (Standard Oil) in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They had a long association with and control of Chase Manhattan Bank. The Rockefellers are considered one of the most powerful families in American history. In this presentation Dawn Johnson will explore the degree to which Rockefeller power and wealth reverberate until today.
