THE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE:
THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD:
Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) 1/20/97
THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD
A profile of self-made
tycoon Andrew Carne-
gie (1835-1919), who,
historian Harold Livesay
said, "set out literally to
conquer the world of
steel." Comments from
scholars and descend-
ants of business associ-
ates depict an ambitious
man determined to over-
come the shame of his
impoverished childhood. While the Scottish-born
Carnegie found success in the railroad and iron indus-
tries, it was his establishment of a Pittsburgh steel
mill and his fateful partnership with industrialist
Henry Clay Frick that made him the richest man in
the world. But his tolerance of Frick's ruthless stance
on organized labor—which culminated in a labor dis-
pute that cost several lives—tarnished Carnegie's
public image as a "benevolent employer." (2:00)
