Charles B. Benenson (30 January 1913 – 22 February 2004) was an American real estate developer and investor.
==Biography==
Benenson Realty Co. was founded by his father Benjamin Benenson in 1905 and grew into an industry leader under his guidance, until his death in 1938. The younger Benenson began his career in 1933, during the depths of the Great Depression through which the company survived due to their lucrative lease with The Horn & Hardart automat at 31st and Broadway.〔(Real Estate Weekly: "Great Real Estate Families" ) August 20, 2005〕 He ran the company until his death in 2004.
Benenson was a philanthropist and political donor. His efforts and views landed him on the master list of Nixon political opponents. He was a founding member of the Association for a Better New York, the Realty Foundation, the Lincoln Center Real Estate and Construction Council, the New York Junior Tennis League, the I Have a Dream Program, and the Museum of African Art.〔(New York Times: "Paid Notice: Deaths BENENSON, CHARLES B." ) February 25, 2004〕 He was also a major collector of African art, and upon his death left much of his collection to the Yale University Art Gallery.〔(Yale Alumni Magazine: "Objects of Desire - Charlie Benenson ’33, who amassed one of the world’s finest private collections of African art, also helped discover American artists such as Saul Steinberg and Red Grooms. Virtually all of his extraordinary collection is coming to Yale." by Kathrin Lassila ) September/October 2004〕
