About
American businessman and philanthropist Michael Armand Hammer built a career tied to his family’s industrial heritage, particularly through his involvement with Occidental Petroleum, a company associated with his grandfather Armand Hammer. Trained in business with an MBA from Columbia, he began in finance and later held executive roles at Occidental during the 1980s, serving on its board and executive committee until his departure in the early 1990s.
After leaving the company, he led and invested in a variety of ventures, including entertainment firms, art galleries and audiovisual production—among them Hammer Galleries and Hammer Productions—and managed family foundations devoted to charitable projects. He also owned and served as CEO of the historic Knoedler gallery in New York, which became embroiled in a scandal over forged works that led to its closure in 2011.
Active in religious and philanthropic initiatives, he served on boards and committees of Christian and community organizations such as the Los Angeles Dream Center and various educational institutions. His public life combined business leadership, philanthropic work and participation in the art market, leaving a record marked by both charitable contributions and commercial controversies.
