C. Ballard
Ballard was an employee in the real estate department of The
Prudential Insurance Co. of America (Prudential) from 1948 until
his retirement in 1982. During the course of his career at
Prudential, Ballard was assigned to several regional offices of
Prudential, including Houston and Dallas, Texas, and beginning in
1966 in the corporate headquarters of Prudential at Newark, New
Jersey, and then again, for a short time, at the Houston regional
office. In 1973, he was reassigned to Prudential's Newark
corporate headquarters, where he remained until his retirement in
early 1982. At the time he left Prudential, Ballard was a senior
vice president in charge of equities and worked under Donald Knab
(Knab), who was in charge of all of Prudential's real estate
operations.
Ballard's work with Prudential in its real estate equity
operations involved the purchase, development, management, and
sale of property. Ballard supervised the staff of this
department at Prudential's headquarters, as well as the real
estate department staff at Prudential's regional and field
offices throughout the United States. Ballard could influence
the choice of builders and contractors for Prudential projects
and could influence or prevent a project from going forward.
Shortly after leaving Prudential, Ballard became a general
partner with Goldman Sachs, an investment firm in New York City.
