Herbert Quandt
Herbert Quandt was a prominent German industrialist and the largest shareholder of BMW, known for his significant role in the company’s post-war success. Born in 1910, he was the son of Günther Quandt and became infamous for his family's connections to the Nazi regime, particularly for overseeing battery plants that exploited forced labor during World War II. The Quandt family's wealth, built on these unethical practices, has led to ongoing discussions about accountability and the legacy of Nazi collaboration in contemporary Germany.
Born on Jun 28, 1910 (114 years old)
