It was J. Bruce Ismay. As the Titanic was heading towards the iceberg he convinced the Captain to go faster so they could arrive in New York quicker. J. Bruce Ismay selfishly joined a lifeboat as the ship was sinking. As the Managing Director of White Star Line, he reduced the number of lifeboats on the ship from 48 to 16 leaving many of the precious lifes to perish.
