Peter Drucker was known as "the father of modern management." But he moved freely in worlds beyond management. He lived to be 95, and conducted a remarkable 70 year career in writing, teaching and consulting. Several years before his death, he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. He and Doris Drucker (author of the wonderful memoir Invent Radium Or I'll Pull Your Hair (University of Chicago Press, 2004) were married for sixty-eight years, with four children and six grandchildren.
He published more than 40 books (most of them after he turned 65), selling millions of copies worldwide. Drucker was a trusted adviser to Fortune 500 companies such as General Electric and Procter & Gamble, and also to nonprofit organizations such as the Girl Scouts of the USA and the Salvation Army.
He was a professor beloved and highly respected by his students for more than 60 years. His educational and institutional legacy lives on at the Peter F. Drucker and Masatoshi Ito Graduate School of Management and The Drucker Institute, both in Claremont, California. He taught at the Drucker School from 1971-2003; the school was named after him in 1987.
Drucker also guest lectured on a regular basis at Wharton for a number of years. From 1951-1971, he taught management at New York University.
