It’s been two decades since Hugh McColl stepped down as chairman and CEO of Bank of America.
But the next chapter of McColl’s life hasn’t been what most people would term “retirement.”
He’s one of Charlotte’s most celebrated leaders. He’s a major philanthropist. He’s helmed firms McColl Partners and Falfurrias Capital Investment. He’s dabbled in cattle and fine art.
He’s had health concerns but hasn’t neglected the concerns of his community. He’s backed local politicians in recent elections and has dedicated himself to social justice issues and economic disparities.
