Levi Strauss is not typically considered a robber baron. He was a Jewish immigrant who founded Levi Strauss & Co., introducing durable jeans that became popular among miners and workers during the Gold Rush.

His legacy is more aligned with innovative entrepreneurship than with the exploitative tactics associated with robber barons.
