Answer: the correct answer is Henry Frick

Explanation: Henry Clay Frick was a man of contradictions. On the one hand a ruthless industrialist who destroyed competitors and unions to earn the maximum revenues, Frick was also a philanthropist who donated millions before he died, even more after his death, and was a good family man and one of America's leading patrons of the arts.
