Melvin Simon Autographs
Melvin Simon (October 21, 1926 – September 16, 2009) was an American businessman and film producer, who co-founded the largest shopping mall company in the United States, Simon Property Group, with his younger brother, Herb Simon. The pair jointly purchased the Indiana Pacers in 1983.
Simon was born to a Jewish family in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He grew up in the Bronx and was the son of Max and Mae Simon. His father was a tailor who emigrated from Central Europe. Simon graduated from the Bronx High School of Science and earned a degree in accounting from the City College of New York in 1949. He served in the US Army where he was stationed at Fort Benjamin Harrison in Indianapolis in 1953. He supplemented his army pay working as a door-to-door encyclopedia salesman. After leaving the military, he decided to stay in Indianapolis and took a job as a leasing agent when he saw the potential in real estate.
After a few years as a leasing agent and handled leasing at several shopping centers, he formed his own leasing company in 1959 with his younger brother Herb, called Melvin Simon & Associates. Melvin owned ⅔ of the business and Herb the remainder. They started out by developing strip centers anchored by groceries and drugstores; they soon graduated to developing fully enclosed malls. By 1967, they owned and operated more than 3 million square feet of retail property and had expanded nationally. His oldest brother Fred Simon joined the business and became the longtime leasing director at Simon Property Group.
