John Davison Rockefeller, Sr. (July 8, 1839 - May 23, 1937) was an American industrialist and philanthropist. Rockefeller revolutionized the petroleum industry and defined the structure of modern philanthropy. Rockefeller had always believed since he was a child that his purpose in life was to make as much money as possible, and then use it wisely to improve the lot of mankind. In 1870, Rockefeller founded the Standard Oil Company and ran it until he retired in the late 1890s. He kept his stock and as gasoline grew in importance, his wealth soared and he became the world's richest man and first U.S. dollar billionaire. Rockefeller is often regarded as the richest person in history. Standard Oil was convicted in Federal Court of monopolistic practices and broken up in 1911. Rockefeller spent the last forty years of his life in retirement. His fortune was used to create the modern systematic approach of targeted philanthropy with foundations that had a major effect on medicine, education, and scientific research. His foundations pioneered the development of medical research, and were instrumental in the eradication of hookworm and yellow fever. He was a devout Northern Baptist and supported many church-based institutions throughout his life. Always avoiding the spotlight, Rockefeller was remembered for handing dimes to those he encountered in public. Married in 1864, Rockefeller outlived his wife Laura Celestia ("Cettie") Spelman. The Rockefellers had four daughters and one son (John D. Rockefeller, Jr.). "Junior" was largely entrusted with supervision of the foundations. Video from: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/r...

"Shut your mouth and take what the history books give you." You sound like a thought cop from Orwell's 1984. Ever think that history books could have had influence from Rockefeller or those wanting to protect him? Why do you think the Rockefeller family created three groups meant to influence foreign policy? So they can keep screwing the world and turn us into a one world government (I.E., the purpose of the Trilateral Commission.) Just because it's taught in school doesn't mean it's correct.

John D. Rockefeller was a business genius. His companies are still among the best managed in the world. Buy stock in Exxon-Mobil. The dividends are good.

money=power. "power corrupts and ultimate power corrupts ultimately" They had around .5billion in the 1920's. In 2008 they have around 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000....

Yeah He Listened to the Baptist Preacher about making as much money as he possibly could but ignored his advise about giving any of it away! Greed over took this sad man!

mickker1 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
I bet the Rockefeller's own the company that made this pathetic doco. They are nothing but evil tyrants that are trying to control the world.

You don't seem like someone who's considering my opinion, are you?
testicularcancer (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
No. YOU are the piece of shit who thinks he's always right and that whoever disagrees with YOUR view should just shut up and are idiots. Who the FUCK do you think you are telling people to shut up? You know what? Fine if you believe Rockefeller is a saint, then I won't stop you. But atleast consider other people's opinions even if you don't agree with it. Atleast respect their OWN views instead of telling them to shut up and calling them immature idiots. Your not the boss anyone buddy.
