介绍:
If you pay attention to American politics or popular culture, there&`&s one name that keeps popping up—Donald Trump. He first made his name in business, and later, he went on to take over the world of reality television. Today, he stands as the leader of one of the most powerful nations on Earth.
Donald Trump was born the fourth of five children on June 14, 1946, in Queens, New York. His father was a successful real estate developer and no doubt2 taught Trump a thing or two3 about the business world as he grew up. To further4 his business education, he attended the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania so he could follow in his father&`&s footsteps5.
In 1971, he was given control of his father&`&s company, which he renamed the Trump Organization, and moved to Manhattan. By 1982, Trump had his crown jewel—Trump Tower. The multimillion-dollar, 58-story building on Manhattan&`&s 5th Avenue made Donald Trump a household name. Throughout the 80s and 90s, Trump continued expanding6 his real estate empire. By his own account7, he was a billionaire by the time 1990 rolled around8. Whether this claim was true or not, it kept him in the media spotlight▼.
