Judah is the managing partner of Roaring Brook Capital L.P., a long/short equity investment partnership based in White Plains, New York. He is also co-author (with Sandy Weill) of a recently published book entitled, “The Real Deal -- My Life in Business And Philanthropy.”

Judah enjoyed many years working on Wall Street. From 1989 until 2003, he served as a First Vice President in Merrill Lynch’s Equity Research Department. Judah headed the company’s global research team for the financial services industry and specialized in Banks, Broker Dealers, and Asset Management Companies. From 1991 to 2002, he earned top honors in Institutional Investor Magazine’s All-America Research Team Survey, Greenwich Research’s annual survey of Institutional Investors, and the annual survey of leading analysts conducted by The Wall Street Journal. He has also been cited for his professional accomplishments by Fortune and Bloomberg Magazines. Judah has been a repeat guest on Louis Rukeyser’s Wall Street Week television program and has frequently appeared on other business television programs as well as having been quoted extensively in the print media.

He began his career as a consultant for Chase Econometrics in 1980. In 1983, he took his first job on Wall Street in the Strategic Planning Department of Merrill Lynch Capital Markets (the firm’s investment banking and institutional business). A year later, he moved to Merrill Lynch’s Equity Research Department and covered Banks in the southern portion of the US. In 1987, Judah accepted a position as lead Regional Bank analyst at Morgan Stanley where he worked for two years before being recruited back to Merrill Lynch to head the global financial services team.

In addition to the A.B. degree in 1979, Judah earned his MBA at Cornell. He is past president of the Bank & Financial Analysts Association, a professional group composed of investment analysts and portfolio managers covering the financial services sector. He serves on the Executive Committee of the American Jewish Committee, a well known human relations organization which promotes democracy, mutual understanding, and tolerance between people of different faiths and ethnicities. He also serves on the board of trustees for Commentary Magazine.

At the time of our 35th reunion, Judah divides time between philanthropic involvements, his farm in Dutchess County, and his passion for investing. With a keen interest in social entrepreneurship and finance, Judah devotes considerable time to the Israel Venture Network, an organization that provides capital and mentoring to social businesses in Israel. He also works closely with young farmers in the Hudson Valley helping them establish sustainable farming ventures (classmates are welcome to visit Meadowland Farm).

At the time of our 40th reunion, Judah has retired from investing for others and devotes his time to managing his expanding family farm and promoting conservation, agriculture, social entrepreneurship, and intelligent economic development throughout the Hudson Valley. He proudly serves as Vice Chairman of the board of The Glynwood Center and as board member and Chair of Urban Initiatives for Scenic Hudson.
