Timeline
Henry Clay Alexander (1 August 1902 – 14 December 1969) was an American banker who served as president, chairman, and CEO of J.P. Morgan & Co.
Alexander was born on a farm in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, where his father ran a feed store.
He graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1923 and Yale Law School in 1925.
After his graduation from law school, Alexander joined Davis, Polk, Wardwell, Gardiner & Reed in New York City, where he was made partner at age 32.
At Davis Polk, he served as counsel to J. P. Morgan Jr. during the Nye Committee investigations and hearings on the munitions industry.
Alexander married Janet Hutchinson 1934.
In 1939, he accepted a partnership at the House of Morgan at the age of 36, and became the fourth head of the bank after J. P. Morgan, J. P. Morgan Jr., and George Whitney.
In 1940, Alexander joined the Morgan bank with the securities firm Morgan, Stanley, and Co. to form the commercial bank and trust corporation J.P. Morgan & Co. He became the president and CEO in 1950 and chairman of the board in 1955.
In his role as CEO, Alexander broke from Morgan's established model of eschewing the solicitation of new business, instead training and stationing a group of employees known as "bird dogs" around the United States to pursue clients.
In 1958, he publicly advocated for the reduction of income taxes in the United States as an economic stimulus in the wake of recession.
Alexander is credited for revitalizing J.P. Morgan & Co. with his aggressive approach to the development of new business, and in 1959 he leveraged this influx of capital funds to merge with the Guaranty Trust Company, forming Morgan Guaranty and serving as its CEO and chairman.
At the completion of the merger, Morgan Guaranty controlled $512 million in capital funds, as opposed to J.P. Morgan & Co.'s $89 million.
Alexander retired from Morgan Guaranty in 1967.
Alexander served as vice chairman of the United States Strategic Bombing Survey in Europe during World War II and earned a Medal of Merit for his service.
He also was the national chairman for the American-Korean Foundation.
In addition to his career in banking, Alexander served of the board of directors of General Motors, the American Viscose Corporation, and Standard Brands.
He was a trustee on the boards of Presbyterian Hospital, Vanderbilt University, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
