The Reginald Lewis Empire on The Rock Newman Show

We discuss the Reginald F. Lewis Empire with his widow Mrs. Loida Nicholas Lewis. Join us as we explore how a Black man from Baltimore, MD would become the only person in Harvard Law School history to be accepted without formally applying, create the first African American corporate law firm on Wallstreet and would become the first African American to build a billion-dollar company. In 1987, Reginald Lewis' company Beatrice Foods would become the first black-owned company to have more than $1 billion (reported revenue of $1.8 billion) in annual sales.
