Event Description

At age 28, the grandson of Henry Ford, assumes the duty of president of Ford Motor Co after Henry Ford is forced out by his wife Clara and daughter-in-law Eleanor. One of the first things Henry did was to fire Harry Bennett, he also hired the 12 " Whiz Kids ".

Almost immediately upon becoming president in 1945, Mr. Ford set in motion a multi-billion-dollar reorganization and expansion program of international proportions. The massive expenditures provided the company with modern facilities in the United States and in 22 foreign countries for engineering, manufacture, assembly and distribution of its products.
