Bernard Rapoport
Bernard Rapoport (July 17, 1917 – April 5, 2012) was an American entrepreneur, philanthropist, author, and the founder of American Income Life Insurance Company. He worked for the advancement of human rights, education, and literacy.
==Background and education==
Rapoport was born in San Antonio, Texas. His father, David Rapoport, and mother, Riva Feldman, immigrated to the United States from Russia in the early 1900s. Rapoport’s upbringing was very modest, and his father peddled blankets on the streets of San Antonio.
Rapoport grew up during the Great Depression, and times for his family proved to be very hard. When Rapoport was 6 years old, his family was evicted from their home, and they continued to face financial difficulties through the Depression. Yet, throughout his youth, Rapoport felt they had much to be grateful for, including books and music.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Bernard and Audre Rapoport Foundation )〕

He graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Arts in 1939.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Former Regents of the University of Texas System )〕 Rapoport met Audre Newman in January 1942, and they soon married.

Rapoport was also a founding father of the Gamma Deuteron Chapter of the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity in 1939 at the University of Texas at Austin, where he is an esteemed alumnus.
