Samuel Rudin (1896–1975) was an American real estate developer in New York City, founder of the Rudin Management Company, and patriarch of the Rudin family.




Biography


Rudin was the son of Lithuanian-Jewish immigrant Louis Rudinsky, who operated a dry goods store on the Lower East Side of the Manhattan borough of New York City. His father made his first real estate purchase in 1905 when he bought a four-story brownstone on 153 East 54th Street. He commanded his sons to never sell the property and to try and purchase all the buildings surrounding it.
Samuel Rudin followed his father's edict, and he, along with his brothers, Edward, Henry, and Nathan, purchased most of the surrounding buildings. They continued to add buildings to their portfolio, and in 1925, they founded the Rudin Management Company to handle the management and leasing side of the business. In the 1950s and 1960s, the Rudin family was one of the most prolific builders of skyscrapers in Manhattan.
In 1975, his sons Jack and Lewis took over the company. In 1990, fifteen years after his death, the Rudin Management portfolio was valued at $1.5 billion.

Rudin died in 1975. His will established the Samuel and May Rudin Foundation, which focuses on education, social and religious welfare agencies, hospitals, museums, and the performing arts, primarily in Manhattan, where most of the Rudin portfolio was located.
Rudin was an avid long-distance runner, and his family continues to be a major sponsor of the New York City Marathon.
