Andrew Carnegie (November 25, 1835–August 11, 1919) was an industrialist and philanthropist who led the expansion of the American steel industry in the late nineteenth century. He built Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Steel Company, which he sold to J.P. Morgan in 1901 for $303,450,000; it formed the basis of the U.S. Steel Corporation. During the last 18 years of his life, Carnegie gave away around $350 million (approximately $5.2 billion in 2020), almost 90 percent of his fortune, to charities, foundations, and universities. His 1889 article proclaiming “The Gospel of Wealth” called on the rich to use their wealth to improve society. In 1885, he gave $500,000 to Pittsburgh for a public library and in 1886, he gave $250,000 to Pittsburgh’s Allegheny County for a music hall and library.

Andy Warhol (August 6, 1928–February 22, 1987) born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, was an American artist, film director, and producer who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, advertising, and celebrity culture that flourished by the 1960s. Some of his best-known works include the silkscreen paintings: Campbell’s Soup Cans (1962) and Marilyn Diptych (1962), the experimental films Empire (1964) and Chelsea Girls (1966), and the multimedia events known as the Exploding Plastic Inevitable (1966–67).

Rachel Louise Carson (May 27, 1907–April 14, 1964) was an American marine, author, and conservationist whose influential book Silent spring (1962) and other writings are credited with advancing the global environmental movement. The book Silent spring spurred a reversal in national pesticide policy, which led to a nationwide ban on DDT and led to the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Carson was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Jimmy Carter.

Fred McFeely Rogers (March 20, 1928–February 27, 2003), also known as Mister Rogers, was born in Latrobe, Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh.

The Steelers were very successful during his tenure at president, owner, and chairman, winning 15 division championships, 8 AFC Championships, and an NFL record 6 Super Bowl Championships. He was also credited with spearheading a requirement that NFL teams with head coach and general manager vacancies interview at least one minority candidate, which has become known as the “Rooney Rule.” He was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000.

Jonas Edward Salk (October 28, 1914–June 23, 1995) was an American virologist and medical researcher. In 1947, Salk became a professor in the School of Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, where he later developed one of the first successful polio vaccines. Less than 25 years after the release of Salk’s vaccine, domestic transmission of polio had been eliminated in the United States.

Thomas Earl Starzl (March 11, 1926–March 4, 2017) was an American physician, researcher, and expert on organ transplants. He performed the first human liver transplants and has often been referred to as “the father of modern transplantation”. He also made immense contributions to the field of immunosuppression. In 1996, the Pittsburgh Transplantation Institute was renamed by UPMC as the Thomas E. Starzl Transplantation Institute. In 2006, the University of Pittsburgh renamed one of its newest medical research buildings the Thomas E. Starzl Biomedical Science Tower.

Henry J. Mankin, M.D. (October 9, 1928–December 22, 2018) was a Pittsburgh Native, earning both his undergraduate and medical education at the University of Pittsburgh. He went on to become the Edith M. Ashley Professor of Orthopaedics Emeritus at Harvard Medical School and Chair of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital. Mankin was a pioneer in the field of musculoskeletal oncology. His pioneering research on cartilage and focus on education in Orthopaedic Surgery only begin to highlight the tremendous impact he has had in Orthopaedics.
