==Early life and education==
Ralph Lauren (pronounced ()) was born Ralph Lifshitz in the Bronx, New York City, to Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants, Fraydl (née Kotlar) and Frank Lifshitz, a house painter,〔Gross (2004), p. 28〕 from Pinsk, Belarus.
Lauren attended day school followed by MTA (now known as the Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy), before eventually graduating from DeWitt Clinton High School in 1957.〔("Selling a Dream of Elegance and the Good Life" ), ''Time (magazine)'', September 1, 1986. Retrieved September 15, 2009. ''"At DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx, Lauren attended business classes but paid little attention to studies. His adolescent idols were British and American style setters: the Duke of Windsor, for example, and Katharine Hepburn."''〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=DeWitt Clinton High School, Bronx, New York )〕 He has said he had had heroes such as John F. Kennedy and James Stewart, hoping to acquire a "movie star" type of personality.〔Oprah Winfrey. O Oct. 2002: n. pag. Oprah. Web. 12 Dec. 2012. (Oprah Interviews Ralph Lauren )>〕 In MTA Lauren was known by his classmates for selling ties to his fellow students. In a later interview about his early ambitions he referred to his Clinton yearbook, in which it stated under his picture that he wanted to be a millionaire.〔Gross (2004), p. 38〕 There has been a lot of debate over the correct pronunciation of the designers name, however his niece Jenny Lauren clarifies this issue on her website. She states that Lauren is pronounced as the girls first name () and not the same as Italian actress Sophia Loren ().
