Samueli met Susan at a temple dance in the San Fernando Valley, where his family moved while he was in college and where most of his relatives remain. She was raised in the Valley.
Not surprisingly, that same philosophy of empowering people to do for themselves—guides Samueli in his latest incarnation as philanthropist-in-chief. Call it goal-oriented giving. And having amassed considerable personal wealth, Samueli can—and has—made a big impact. He and his wife, Susan, who have three daughters ranging in age from six to 15, have established the Samueli Foundation, with three full-time staffers to sift through the voluminous requests that come in. But education is always priority number one.
