Background

Susan Alfond and her three siblings (Bill, Ted) inherited a fortune from their father Harold Alfond, who founded Dexter Shoe Company in 1956. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway acquired Dexter Shoe in 1993 for $433 million in Berkshire stock - a deal Buffett later called his worst investment.
