Guggenheim, Simon (1867–1941) business executive, philanthropist; born in Philadelphia (son of Meyer Guggenheim). He worked for his father's large mining and metal-processing firm, eventually becoming president of the American Smelting and Refining Company (1919–41). Having settled in Denver, he served as a U.S. senator from Colorado (Rep., 1907–13). As one of the heirs of the massive Guggenheim fortune, he donated large sums to various educational and medical institutions.
