Joseph H. Flom
Joseph Harold "Joe" Flom (December 21, 1923 – February 23, 2011) was an American lawyer and pioneer of mergers and acquisitions, specializing in representing companies in takeover battles.〔( Jonathan D. Glater, "Joseph H. Flom, Pioneering Deal Lawyer, Dies at 87", The New York Times, Feb. 23, 2011. )〕 By the 1980s, he had acquired a reputation of being "Mr. Takeover" (whereas Martin Lipton was known as "Mr. Defense"). Flom became a partner at what is now known as Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom in 1954, and helped transform it from a four-lawyer firm into one of the largest law firms in the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Joseph H. Flom, M&A Pioneer and Philanthropist, Dies at 87 )〕 In 1999, ''The American Lawyer'' named him one of their "Lawyers of the Century".〔(The Lawyers of the Century: The American Lawyer Names Thurgood Marshall, Richard Posner, Ralph Nader, Ruth Bader Ginsberg to Its List )〕
== Early life ==
Flom was born in Baltimore, Maryland on December 21, 1923, the son of Itzak (Isadore) Flom, a labor organizer in the Manhattan garment district, and the former Fannie Hirsch. Both parents were Jewish immigrants from a shtetl in the Ukraine, and—although they were already married—came to United States separately, shortly after World War I. Three years after Joe Flom was born in Baltimore, the family moved to Borough Park, Brooklyn, New York City, where Joseph Flom grew up.
After graduating from Townsend Harris High School, he worked as an office boy in a law firm during the day, while attending City College of New York on a pre-law major at night. Two years into his studies, World War II broke out and Flom was drafted into the Army. However, he never saw any fighting, as he was part of a group of 20 soldiers that were sent to a radar repair school.〔 After the war ended, despite not having graduated from college, he enrolled at Harvard Law School on the G.I. Bill, where he was classmates with Charlie Munger and graduated in 1948.〔
