Today we are talking to Tony Guernsey, former national head of Wilmington Trust wealth management, a longtime senior banker at JP Morgan, founder of the UBS US private bank. Tony wrote an unpublished memoir called Divas, Icons, and Felons with his wisdom and great stories from his distinguished five decades managing money for many wealthy and famous clients such as Steve Jobs, Jay Chiat, and Christo. Tony was very generous to share some of them with me and it is a rare peek inside this often fascinating and eccentric world, but it also highlights the lack of education out there for those who have the responsibilities of wealth. I hope you enjoy my talk with Tony Guernsey as much as I did. BIOGRAPHY: Peter E. ”Tony” Guernsey Jr. was born and raised in Long Island, New York. He was educated at the Taft School in Watertown, CT, and Lake Forest College, in Lake Forest, Illinois. During the Vietnam War, he spent 30 months in the U.S Naval Reserve at Great Lakes Naval base in North Chicago, Illinois. Simultaneously he was an ice hockey referee and drove a taxi cab in Chicago.
