Jack Adler

Jack was raised in Brooklyn. When he was 14 years old, one of his uncles took him to Aqueduct Race Track and thus commenced Jack’s lifelong love affair with the Sport of Kings. Searching for winners has been Jack’s white whale. Jack graduated college in ’66. Summers, in college, he worked as a hot walker at Belmont.After receiving his Master’s in Cultural Anthropology, Jack spent the next few years abroad, studying for his Ph.D. at a British University. Two of those four years were spent doing field work in Ste. Luce, a fishing village on Martinique’s North East coast.Eventually, Jack became disenchanted with academia, whereupon he migrated to Wall Street, where he found that his grandmother was correct when she told him, “Rich or poor, it’s good to have money.” He retired in ’98.Jack lives in a gated community in New Jersey. He spends his time golfing, reading, hanging out at the racetrack, and enjoying time with his family: his lovely wife of 54 years, his three children, their spouses, and what to date are his five grandchildren.
