Bronfman family
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bronfman family is a Canadian Jewish family. It owes its initial fame to Samuel Bronfman (1889–1971), who made a fortune in the alcoholic distilled beverage business during the 20th century through the family's Seagram Company. The family is of Russian Jewish and Romanian Jewish ancestry. According to staff reporter, Nathaniel Popper, the Bronfman family is "perhaps the single largest force in the Jewish charitable world"[1]
