Robert W. Woodruff
Robert Winship Woodruff (December 6, 1889 – March 7, 1985) was the president of The Coca-Cola Company from 1923 until 1954. With a large net worth, he was also a major philanthropist, and many educational and cultural landmarks in the U.S. city of Atlanta, Georgia, bear his name. Included among these are the Woodruff Arts Center, Woodruff Park, and the Robert W. Woodruff Library.
==Early life==
Woodruff was born in Columbus, Georgia, the son of Ernest Woodruff, an Atlanta businessman who, among other things, was leader of the group of investors who bought The Coca-Cola Company from Asa Griggs Candler in 1919. His grandfather was Atlanta manufacturing magnate Robert Winship.
After graduating from the Georgia Military Academy he attended Georgia Tech, where he failed out; and then the Emory University campus at Oxford, Georgia, for one term, where he excelled at "cutting classes and spending money".〔(Mark Pendergrast, ''For God, country and Coca-Cola'', p.152 )〕
