Hardcover 1956 ‘Dolphin’ yearbook from Far Rockaway High School in New York City, 8.75 x 11.25, signed and inscribed inside next to his senior portrait by Bernie Madoff, “To Foge, lots of luck in college, Bernie.” A caption next to Madoff’s portrait indicates that he planned to attend “Alabama U.,” and that he was a member of the school’s varsity swimming team, which is pictured at the back of the yearbook. In very good to fine condition, with partial splitting along the front hinge.
Madoff attended the University of Alabama for one year, where he became a brother of the Tau Chapter of the Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity, then transferred to and graduated from Hofstra University in 1960 with a Bachelor of Arts in political science. Madoff briefly attended Brooklyn Law School but left after his first year to start Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC and work for himself. A rare glimpse into the high school career of the maligned financier.
