In for the Long Haul |
Note: John Ruan's colorful history and vast accomplishments come to life in this engaging authorized biography. The chronology traces Ruan's European ancestry, explores his childhood as the son of an Iowa physician, then follows the triumphs and tragedies of his nearly 90-year lifetime. Ruan is founder and chairman of The Ruan Financial Corporation, the Des Moines-based umbrella company that oversees a diverse group of businesses--trucking, banking, financial services, real estate, and international trade. He has been influential in the revitalization of downtown Des Moines and the creation of the skywalk system, shaping the skyline with the Ruan Center, Marriott Hotel, and Ruan Two office complexes, as well as with his philanthropic endeavors, such as the establishment of the World Food Prize. |
