Biography

Rose was born in Brooklyn[1] to a Jewish family, one of three sons[2] of Belle[3] and Samuel B.

The Rose family was one of the most established and prominent real estate families in New York City in the 20th century (along with the Dursts, the Lefraks, the Rudins, and the Tisch family). In 2006, Rose Associates, managed over 31,000 apartments in New York City including Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village.[5][6]

Rose was a prominent philanthropist whose lifetime donations totaled $95 million, including $5 million to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, $15 million to the New York Public Library, $18 million to Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, and $20 million for the $150 million Frederick Phineas and Sandra Priest Rose Center for Earth and Space at the American Museum of Natural History.[2]

Rose helped to create the Association of Yale Alumni and was the first chair of its Board of Governors from 1972 to 1974. He was a member of the University Council from 1976 to 1981 and served on the Yale Corporation as a Fellow from 1989 to 1994.[3] In 1976, Rose received the Yale Medal for outstanding service to the University; in 1991, he received the Medal of Honor from the Yale Science and Engineering Society; and in 1988, Yale awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.[3] After his death in 1999, for Rose's support of good design and the spirit of public service, the Rose Architectural Fellowship was fellowship was created in his honor.

Personal life

In the 1940s, he married Sandra Priest[2] whom she met when she was 19 and a student at Vassar College.[7] She returned in mid-life to school and graduated with a B.A. from Manhattanville College and a M.A. in learning disabilities from The College of New Rochelle; she later taught junior high school students in the South Bronx.[7] They had four children: Deborah Rose; Jonathan F.
