James Alexander Stillman (August 18, 1873 – January 13, 1944) was a chairman of National City Bank.〔 ==Biography== He was born on August 18, 1873 in New York City to James Jewett Stillman. He graduated Harvard University in 1896. He married Anne Urquhart Potter in 1901 at Grace Church. She was the daughter of James Brown Potter. In 1918 his father who was chairman of National City Bank of New York died and the younger Stillman engaged in a fight with Frank A. Vanderlip to control the company. In 1921 he filed for divorce saying that his wife's youngest child was the daughter of a half-blood Indian guide from Quebec. His wife denied the charges and accused him of fathering two illegitimate children with chorus girl Florence H. Leeds. After five years the court refused the divorce saying that he had misbehaved. His wife then filed for divorce but withdrew the contest after receiving a $500,000 necklace. They sailed to Europe to receive counseling from Carl Jung. The court case cost him more than $1 million but they ultimately remained married.〔 He died on January 13, 1944. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James A. Stillman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
