Yes. The retired Chairman of Renaissance Technologies Jim Simons is a Jew. A smart and rich Jew.Wikipedia tells us: James Harris Simons was born in April 1938 to an American Jewish family the only child of Marcia (née Kantor) and Matthew Simons, and raised in Brookline, Massachusetts. His father owned a shoe factory.
The hedge fund guru, Simons is now worth $18 billion, give or take.
New Yorker has an amazing profile of him and his incredible Flatiron Institute. You must read this.
