...From Cage to Vault. A small, enthusiastic and well-read man whose heroes are the Renaissance Medici, Don Bruno has always followed the green flag of money and charmingly ingratiated himself with men of wealth, power and connections. At 19, he followed his merchant father to the U.S., learned the banking business from cage to vault at San Francisco's Bank of Italy under the immigrant Gianninis, and turned a substantial fortune speculating in stocks.
