Join us in New York City, when The Gerald Loeb Awards will announce this year’s winning journalists and outlets in all competition categories and celebrate our career achievement honorees.
At UCLA Anderson, we believe that every year the Loeb entries are a synopsis of the key issues of the day. They are prescient in exposing us to the future and represent an invaluable learning tool for our future leaders.
We are proud to be the stewards of Gerald Loeb’s vision to recognize reporting on business and finance that informs and protects the private investor and the general public.
Gerald Loeb’s vision helped shape business journalism and created a legacy that continues at UCLA Anderson today.
Gerald Martin Loeb, born in San Francisco in 1899, began his career in a securities firm’s bond department in 1921. After moving to New York in 1924, he helped establish E.F. Hutton and became vice-chairman. Known for his accessibility to journalists, Forbes called him “probably the most quoted man on Wall Street” in 1955.
Loeb wrote two investment books, contributed to Forbes, and became known as a Wall Street iconoclast. In 1957, he founded the G. and R. Loeb Foundation, which launched the Gerald Loeb Awards for Distinguished Business and Financial Journalism. UCLA Anderson assumed stewardship of the awards in 1973 under Dean Harold Williams.
