Biography
Samuel Tamposi was born in Nashua, New Hampshire in 1924 to Romanian parents who came to the United States. Though Tamposi grew up on a farm, his interests soon shifted to sales. In the mid 1950s, when Nashua's Textron plant shut down, Tamposi moved his business to real estate, investing most of his money in an abandoned building. He later sold the building and used the capital to develop a building for McCallister Scientific.
Tamposi met Gerald Nash after this first development, and the two formed a fast partnership. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Tamposi and Nash developed over 120 acres (0.49 km2) of commercial and industrial land per year.
Development of Citrus Hills
In 1977, Tamposi was invited to become a limited partner in ownership of the Boston Red Sox. Through this association, Tamposi became friends with Ted Williams. Williams soon became a spokesperson for Tamposi and Nash's new planned Floridian community, Citrus Hills.
Personal life
His granddaughter, Maggie Goodlander, is an attorney who was U.S. deputy assistant attorney general for the Antitrust Division from 2022 to 2024. Goodlander is currently the Democratic nominee for New Hampshire's 2nd congressional district in the 2024 election.
