Lehman family
Jewish German-American family From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lehman family (also Lehmann, Liehmann or Liehman) is a prominent family of Jewish German-Americans who founded the financial firm Lehman Brothers. Some were also involved in American politics.[1] Members have married into the prominent Morgenthau, Loeb, and Bronfman families.
The family traces back to Abraham Lehmann, a cattle merchant in Rimpar, Bavaria, who changed his Yiddish (German-Jewish) surname Löw (Loeb) to the German Lehman.
