    A Conversation with Ed Hajim '58

    Join Mitch Lovett, Simon's interim dean and Benjamin Forman Professor of Marketing, for a conversation with Ed Hajim '58. Ed is a graduate of the University of Rochester and served 30 years on the University's Board of Trustees, including an eight-year tenure as board chair. He currently serves as Chair Emeritus. Ed is one of the University's most generous alums and benefactors, and in 2009, the Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences was named in his honor—after making the largest gift to the school in the University's history at the time.  Throughout the conversation, Ed gives insight into his more than 50 years of investment and senior management experience at companies such as the Capital Group, E.F. Hutton, Lehman Brothers, Furman Selz, and High Vista, and discusses his two books, On The Road Less Traveled and The Island of the Four Ps. He also shares his best advice for current business school students as they prepare to become tomorrow's business leaders. Learn more about Ed on Instagram: @edhajimauthor  This conversation was recorded in May 2025.  View transcript.
