Decendent of the Mellon family of Pittsburgh. Founders or financiers of: Mellon Bank, Gulf Oil Co., Alcoa, US Steel, Pittsburgh Coal. Huge philanthropists: Mellon Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, National Gallery of Art, various Mellon Libraries and Museums, National Parks, and scores of other causes.

James Mellon II was born with, literally, more money than he could ever spend and after college he packed it off to Kenya to hunt. He missed the whole hippie, free-love, psychodelic drug period of the 60's because he was on one long hunting trip.

What a life!
