The 1915 New York City Directory shows him living at 302 West 79th and with the S.D.

When Einstein arrived in the US, Leidesdorf was his accountant.〔(Crossingwallstreet.com Archives )〕 He soon began dedicating himself to what would become a lifetime of philanthropic endeavors for medical and educational institutions, and many other charitable causes, including the Red Cross, the United Jewish Appeal, the Young Women's Christian Association and the United Negro College Fund. "In a letter written to Mr. S. D. Leidesdorf of New York, Rockefeller solicited Leidesdorf to serve as a member of the Foundation Committee of the UNCF, working with W. D. Embree, the Chairman."〔(''The early years of the United Negro College Fund, 1943-1960''. Shuana K. Tucker. The Journal of African American History (Fall 2002): p416(17). )〕

Lehman Human Relations Award of the American Jewish Committee and the Medal for Distinguished Service from the Protestant Council of the City of New York. In 1958, Mr. Leidesdorf received The Hundred Year Association of New York's Gold Medal Award "in recognition of outstanding contributions to the City of New York." He was a founding Trustee for the Institute for Advanced Study.
In 1948, Mr. Leidesdorf began his tenure on the board of the New York University Medical Center serving as the first Chair of the Building Committee. Later he served as the Chair of the board from 1956 until his death on September 21, 1968.
He was chairman of the board of NYU Medical Center from 1956 to 1968. At the time of his death in 1968, the firm he founded was in the top 10 of accounting firms in the United States. The company he started merged to become Ernst & Whinney in 1979 and Ernst and Young in 1989.
