Nine years ago Saul P. Steinberg, then fresh from college,
had a new idea in computer leasing. He parlayed
that idea into Leasco Data Processing Equipment Corporation,
a dynamic international organization whose
merger plans are grabbing headlines in the major business
press.
Here Bernard L. Schwartz, Chairman of Leasco's Executive
Committee and Mr. Steinberg's confidant, discusses
Leasco's fantastic growth and the philosophy
behind its recent mergers with Touche Ross partner
Philip H. Cohen. Mr. Cohen and Mr. Schwartz have been
working with Leasco since it was small enough to be run
from Mr. Steinberg's kitchen table.
