Andrew Carnegie emigrated from Scotland to the United States as a child and rose from humble beginnings to become one of the wealthiest industrialists of his time. He started as a bobbin boy in a cotton factory and later invested in various ventures, notably the steel industry, where he founded Carnegie Steel Company. His success was marked by innovations in production and management, ultimately leading to the steel industry's dominance in America. Later in life, he became a notable philanthropist, giving away much of his fortune to support education, libraries, and cultural institutions.
The Steel Magnate gave the US a lasting legacy of libraries.
