Leland Stanford was an industrialist, business tycoon, politician, and the founder of Stanford University. During the California Gold Rush Stanford moved to California and started a whole sale business which grew as the economy boomed.  Stanford helped to found a major railroad company the Central Pacific Railroad and went on to make large amounts of money, enough so for many to consider him a "Robber Baron" a name given to wealth and powerful 19th century American businessmen.
