Edsel Ford (1893-1943), the only child of American automobile pioneer, Henry Ford, was president of the Ford Motor Company from 1919 until his death in 1943. Ford and his wife, Eleanor Lowthian Clay, were major benefactors of the Detroit Institute of Art. As president of the Detroit Arts Commission, Ford commissioned Diego Rivera to paint the expansive Detroit Industry Murals for the Museum. The Ford family’s home, Gaulker Point, in Grosse Pointe Shores, Michigan is open to the public.
