Arthur Blank Career

After Blank graduated from Babson College, he was hired by Arthur Young and Company, where he was a senior accountant. He later joined the Daylin Corporation, where he rose to become president of Elliott’s Drug Stores/Stripe Discount Stores, a division of Daylin.

When Daylin decided to sell off that division, Blank moved to another division, Handy Dan Home Improvement Centers. Bernard Marcus was CEO of Handy Dan and Blank was vice president of finance when both were fired in 1978 as part of an internal power struggle.

In 1978, Blank co-founded Home Depot along with Marcus. New York investment banker Ken Langone assembled the initial group of investors and merchandising expert Patrick Farrah helped founders realize their vision of one-stop shopping for the do-it-yourselfer.

The store revolutionized the home improvement business with its warehouse concept and Blank and Marcus became billionaires as a result. Blank spent 19 years as the company’s president before succeeding Marcus as CEO. Blank retired from the company in 2001 as a co-chairman.

Today, Blank is the Chairman of AMB Group LLC, the parent company of the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United. He is also chairman of The Arthur Blank Family Foundation and serves on the Board of Trustees of Emory University.
