An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Dr Michael von Clemm (1935–1997) was an American businessman, restaurateur, anthropologist and president of Templeton College, Oxford. Although in one interpretation of his life, he was merely a high-flying banker, he could also have been said to have helped start the restaurant revolution in the UK of the 1980s, and to have been the original father of the Canary Wharf development. He helped found the London Eurodollar market, saving London's position as a global financial centre. He also made a huge impact in his work for charity and the English Speaking Union. All this despite his training being as a professor of anthropology.
