dc.descriptionMurry Guggenheim was the third son of Meyer Guggenheim, a Swiss-born Jewish immigrant who came to America in 1848, and his wife, Barbara Meyers Guggenheim. Meyer and Barbara Guggenheim had ten surviving children, seven sons and three daughters. Murry Guggenheim was sent to Switzerland as a young man to study embroidery and lace manufacture. He then joined the family lace and embroidery import business. In 1881 Meyer Guggenheim became involved in mining and smelting. The family moved to New York City where Murry handled and sold metals for M. Guggenheim�s Sons. Eventually Murry became chairman of the finance committee of American Smelting and Refining, a director of Kennecott Copper and, after the death of his brother Daniel, presided over the Guggenheim nitrate monopoly in Chile. Following a long tradition, he donated part of his wealth to worthy causes. Murry took a very personal interest in his main philanthropy: the Murry and Leonie Guggenheim Dental Clinic for New York City schoolchildren. He also donated the central display greenhouse to the New York Botanical Gardens.
