Thomas J. Klutznick, President


Before formation of the MKDG partnership, Mr. Klutznick was president and later chairman and chief executive officer of Urban Investment and Development Company, the Chicago-headquartered real-estate subsidiary of Aetna Life & Casualty. During this period, from 1972 to 1982, the company: developed Water Tower Place on North Michigan Avenue; erected office buildings, including Chicago's 333 West Wacker Drive, Houston's First City Tower and Hartford's CityPlace; completed a second generation of Chicago-area regional shopping centers (the first generation had been developed by Mr. Klutznick and his father, the late Philip M. Klutznick) consisting of Hawthorn Center in Vernon Hills, Fox Valley Center in Aurora, Orland Square in Orland Park and Stratford Square in Bloomingdale--and, in the cases of Hawthorn and Fox Valley, developed adjacent new communities; and directed the restoration of Seattle's venerable Olympic Hotel.

Beyond real-estate activities, Mr. Klutznick's interests and involvement range from economic policy and the environment to education and societal issues. He is a trustee of the Committee for Economic Development, a council member of Resources for the Future, trustee emeritus of the National Building Museum and founder of Roosevelt University's Institute for Metropolitan Affairs.
