The History of the Morgenthau Family
All Of It - A podcast by WNYC
We spend the whole second hour of today's show taking a deep dive into the history of the Morgenthaus, one of the most powerful and influential families in New York City. The Morgenthau family made a mark on every corner of the city, from real estate to politics to the judicial system. Author Andrew Meier joins us to discuss his new, comprehensive history, Morgenthau: Power, Privilege, and the Rise of an American Dynasty.
