Tribute to George P. Shultz (December 13, 1920 – February 6, 2021) 1983 Person of the Year   On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Brazilian-American Chamber of Commerce, we regretfully inform you of the passing, on February 6, 2021 at the age of 100, of George Shultz, economist, statesman, businessman, and 1983 Person of the Year American honoree.  A keen intellect and insightful leader, Shultz served in various positions under three Republican presidents and played a major role in shaping foreign policy under the Reagan administration, bringing an end to the Cold War.  His dialogue with the Chamber strengthened ties between Brazil and the United States and furthered our mission of promoting trade and investment between the two nations. Born in New York City, Shultz graduated from Princeton University and served in the United States Marine Corps during World War II.  He earned a Ph.D. in Industrial Economics from MIT and subsequently taught at MIT (1948-57) and served as Dean of the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business. Amidst his extensive and successful career in government, in 1974 Shultz accepted a position at Bechtel, an engineering, construction, and project management company, eventually becoming President & Director.  Through Bechtel, with an active presence in Brazil, Shultz developed many friendships with Brazilians, which undoubtedly contributed to the advancement of relations between Brazil and the United States.  He accompanied President Reagan on an official visit to Brazil in 1982 and met with President José Sarney and other senior officials in Rio de Janeiro and Brasília in 1988. Shultz was predeceased by his former wife and mother of his five children, Helena Maria O'Brien.  He is survived by his wife, Charlotte Mailliard Swig; his children, Margaret Ann Tilsworth, Kathleen Pratt Shultz Jorgensen, Peter Milton Shultz, Barbara Lennox Shultz White, and Alexander George Shultz; 11 grandchildren; and 9 great-grandchildren. More information on George Shultz’s great life and career can be found here: .
