Doug Stickney
New York
1978
Is this racist? I suppose. If it makes any difference Doug’s roommate at UCLA was a gay black guy who was scary smart just like Doug. And they lived next door to Lorna Luft of all people.
Doug was one of the smartest people I ever knew. He practically sleepwalked his way to getting a Masters in Biostatistics at UCLA, then founded Quantum Health Resources. I saw him interviewed on CNBC when they went public. He later told me he made 16,000% on his investment that day.
