John D Rockefeller was a man who owned a wealthy business. He was born on 8 July 1839 in Richford, New York, and died on 23 May 1937.

He was the founder of the Standard Oil company, and a philanthropist. He sold standard oil for a lot more then it was worth. In today's money he would have been worth 2.5 billion dollars. He paid his workers very little.
