American entrepreneur from Missouri, best known for McCulloch chainsaws and for purchasing London Bridge, which he moved to Lake Havasu City, Arizona - one of the cities he founded. He purchased it in 1968 as a unique attraction for his city. The removal and rebuild took 3 years.
Died in Los Angeles, of an accidental overdose of alcohol and barbiturates.
