SUMMARY:Andrew Carnegie: From Steel to the Building of Libraries (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Carnegie amassed an enormous fortune in the steel 
 industry and then became a major philanthropist. During the late 19th 
 century\, when steel would be used first as railroad track\, Carnegie 
 perfected low-cost steel production. The Carnegie Steelworks\, in 
 Homestead\, PA\, employed men producing steel under primitive industrial 
 working conditions. This program will feature the 1892 strike at Homestead 
 which pitted the Pinkerton Detective Agency against the steelworkers ending 
 with 10 deaths. After Carnegie sold his steel company to J.P. Morgan he 
 gave all his money away by building over 2\,500 libraries. Many still exist 
 today. Presenter Rick Feingold teaches American Business History at Bergen 
 Community College and holds an MBA from Penn State University.\n\nThe 
 virtual talk is presented by Long Hill Library\, a member of MAIN.\n\n
