Sir Alfred Chester Beatty, the son of an American banker with an Irish lineage, graduate from Columbia University, became a successful mining magnate and millionaire philanthropist. The youngest of three brothers he established the Selection Trust mining company in London in the early 20th Century. Knighted for supplying the Allies with strategic raw materials during World War II, he retired in 1950, handing over the running of the company to his son Alfred Chester Beatty, who retired in 1968, the year his father died. Sir Alfred, a collector of minerals, Chinese snuff bottles and stamps since childhood, will be remembered for amassing an important group of oriental books, manuscripts and works of art. On his retirement in 1950 he decided to move to Dublin and built a library for his art collection on Shrewsbury Road which opened in 1954.
