William Goldberg (March 19, 1925 – October 20, 2003) was an American diamond dealer and the founder of the William Goldberg Diamond Corporation. Goldberg was born in Brooklyn, New York City.[1] He started cutting diamonds in 1948, but found that his aptitude lay with buying and selling diamonds rather than cutting them.[1] In 1952 he founded Goldberg & Weiss with diamond cutter Irving Weiss.[2] In 1973 he formed the William Goldberg Diamond Corporation, located on 48th Street in New York City's Diamond District.[2][3] In 1978 he became president of the New York Diamond Dealers Club and served three terms.[1] He traded well known diamonds including the Queen of Holland diamond, the Premier Rose diamond, the Red Shield diamond and the Pumpkin diamond.[1] He died of pancreatic cancer, aged 77.[2] Following his death, members of Goldberg's family created the William Goldberg Endowed Scholarship Fund at the Gemological Institute of America.[2] References 4 : 1925 births|2003 deaths|Diamond dealers|People from Brooklyn |
