“I don’t know what he was trying to accomplish,” says billionaire GOP donor Jennifer Pritzker of Trump’s ban on transgender troops. “Well I don’t want to see my life become a political poker chip”
“For the Pritzkers her transitioning wasn’t that eventful. They’re all cool with it. It’s like, pass the salt,” says a family friend. “Her Republicanism—that’s more difficult for them.”
Pritzker’s manner is no-nonsense but friendly. She wears a touch of light red lipstick, and her gray hair is gathered back into a bun, held fast with a gold clip. Black slacks are tucked into knee-high black leather boots. Over her light blue dress she wears a delicate printed shawl, fastened by a gold medallion.
Pritzker has bought, restored, and redeveloped numerous historic buildings in and around Chicago, for which the prestigious Society of Architectural Historians bestowed her with its Award for Excellence in Architectural Stewardship. “The best buildings provide a sense of identity,” she says. Indeed her interest in historic preservation stems from memories of a large house at 340 Wellington Avenue, which was home to her grandparents Abram and Fanny Pritzker.
Also in the records room are the discharge papers from Michael Reese Hospital for Naphtali, dated 1881. “One of the doctors took a liking to him, burned his suit, gave him new clothes and a dollar to launch his business career, which for him meant buying a stack of newspapers and a shoeshine kit,” Jennifer explains. “Eventually he taught himself English, studied pharmacy, graduated from law school.
Today the cousins are all said to be back on amicable terms. Certainly they’re faring well financially. According to recentreports, Jennifer and Nick, for example, are each now worth around $2 billion, while JB’s fortune is pegged at $3.2 billion. The richest Pritzker of all is Jennifer’s Connecticut-based little sister, Karen, 61, with $5.1 billion. With her husband, Michael Vlock, she bought big into Apple, among other smart investments.
Pritzker returned home and enlisted in the Army as a private in February 1974, serving with the 82nd Airborne Division. Wanting to become an officer, she took a leave in 1978 to obtain the required bachelor’s degree, enrolling in Loyola University in Chicago through the ROTC program, and sailed through in two years with a 3.6 GPA.
