Henry P. Davison (left) - Henry Pomeroy Davison (June 12, 1867 - May 6, 1922) was an American banker and philanthropist. "He founded Bankers Trust Company, and became a senior partner at JP Morgan & Company, and in 1910 he was a participant in the secretive meeting on Jekyll Island, Georgia that may have led to the creation of the Federal Reserve. "With the entry of the United States in World War I in 1917, Davision was named Chairman of the War Council of the American Red Cross. In 1919, he published a book, The American Red Cross in the Great War, describing the wartime activities of the Red Cross." -- Wikipedia Henry P. Davison: The record of a useful life. By his friend and partner. Thomas W. Lamont, Harper Bros.

Elliott delivered an address to the American Bankers' Association, titled "The Directors of the Federal Reserve Banks."

This is what people in their mid-30s looked like around 1913. He could pass for 60 today.

I was thinking that too, technogeo, and noticing that he died at 49.

Milton Elliott, obviously a man of substance, was the counsel to the Federal Reserve Board, which had been set up as part of the new Federal Reserve banking system. As a result of this connection, he carried considerable weight in banking circles: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9E0DE1DF103FE2...
