T. Boone Pickens Wildcats on Wall Street

Abstract

Planning Review interviewed T. Boone Pickens in Westchester shortly before he spoke at Business Week's “Conference on the Future” in April. Mr. Pickens is a charming propagandist, a great talker generous with his time, and an entrepreneur clearly excited about catching a ride on the flood tide of opportunity. The misadventures of the oil business and the malapropisms of its cast of characters provide him with a generous supply of raw material for his saga of the populist gamesman, armed with the best strategy, pitted against the entrenched and self‐righteous establishment. He obviously loves the contest.
