In honor and remembrance,

Honorary Trustee, Jordan L. Golding passed away on August 8, 2021. Jordan was a Trustee of the French Library from 1980 until 2003 and was involved in guiding the organization’s finances and investment decisions. His legacy is reflected in today’s Center as we remain a strong organization through these difficult times. A mentee of Georges Doriot and graduate of Harvard Business School, Jordan was a successful businessman and family man. We remain grateful and honored for his gifts of service and support.
