@import "profile.css"; Lee Iacocca Lee Iacocca was born on October 15, 1924 in Allentown, Pennsylvania. His actual name was Lido Anthony Iacocca. In his autobiography, Iacocca points out: "Over the years a number of journalists have reported (or repeated) that my parents went to Lido Beach in Venice for their honeymoon and that I was named Lido to commemorate that happy week. It's a wonderful story, except for one thing: it's not true." Lee Iacocca's father owned a hot-dog restaurant called the Orpheum Wiener House. He also expanded into other businesses, but the Depression was tough on the Iacocca family and Lee has said that the experience had a lasting influence on him. In August 1946 Iacocca started at Ford as a student engineer. In 1956 he made a major breakthrough. Sales of Fords were poor, and Iacocca's district, Philadelphia had the worst performance of all, but he introduced a lower downpayment and an easier payment schedule for the customer. Within three months Philadelphia's figures moved from worst to best. Iacocca was promoted to district manager of Washington, D.C. On September 29, 1956 Iacocca married Mary McCleary and for many years things went well. Lee Iacocca quickly rose up the ranks at Ford and, in 1976, Iacocca was earning $970,000 per annum as number two in the number two company (more than the chairman of Genral Motors). He cites his "greed" and the huge salary as one of the reasons why he put up with an increasingly antagonistic, Henry Ford II. Eventually in 1978 Ford and Iacocca parted company.

Iacocca was born on October 25, 1924 in Allentown, PA, three years after his parents emigrated from Italy. In 1945 he graduated from Lehigh with a B.S. in Industrial Engineering and then attended Princeton for a year on a scholarship. He began his professional career as an engineer at Ford Motor Company and soon entered its sales and management ranks. As general manager of the Ford Division, he was the driving force behind the design of the 1964 Mustang. Six years later, Iacocca was named President of Ford. In July of 1978, Iacocca was fired from Ford though the company turned in two billion dollars in profits the preceding year. Less than five months later he was hired as president of the nearly-defunct Chrysler Corporation. His leadership there would eventually help transform the firm’s fortunes and cement his place in the landscape of American business. He is credited with saving the company from bankruptcy by championing the development of Chrysler’s K-car series and the world’s first minivan. When Iacocca retired from Chrysler in 1992, the firm’s profits were up and thousands of American manufacturing jobs were secure.
