Page 110 : In speaking of Bill Richardson, "His father, William B, a native of Boston, had opened the Mexico City branch of the National City Bank (now Citibank) in 1929 — the first US bank to found a branch in Mexico — and had run it until his retirement in 1956. In 1938, after Mexico took the radical step of nationalizing its oil business (which included expropriating significant US oil holdings), Citibank alone among foreign banks remained in the country, which made William B Richardson a very important American in Mexico. He helped to start Mexico City College (the predecessor to Pan American University), and he was president of the American Chamber of Commerce. He advised major Mexican corporations like Bancomer and the restaurant and retail chain Sanborns. In the 1930s he married a Mexican named Maria Luisa L C de Zubiran, who worked as a secretary in the Mexico City office of National City Bank. She still lives in Mexico City today." | ||
