Howard Lutnick Bio:
Howard has been a dynamic force on Wall Street for more than 30 years. He joined Cantor Fitzgerald in 1983, and rapidly rose through the ranks to become President and CEO at the age of 29. Tragedy struck on September 11, 2001, when terrorists attacked the World Trade Center, and Cantor Fitzgerald lost 658 of its 960 New York-based employees, including Howard's brother and his best friend. He emerged from these events with an indomitable sense of purpose to rebuild the firm to honor those lost, support their families, and become a beacon of hope for those who remained. He was an inspiration to the World - The embodiment of resilience in the face of unspeakable tragedy.
Howard and the Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund donated $180 Million Dollars to his 9/11 families. He remains deeply committed to philanthropic endeavors, donating more than $100 Million Dollars to victims of terrorism, natural disasters, and other emergencies around the world.
