    The Leslie Fay Companies, which is a manufacturer of women’s apparel, was founded by Fred Pomerantz. It was named after Fred’s daughter, Leslie Fay. The company is based out of New York, and Fred Pomerantz made the company public in 1952. Paul Polishan, who became CFO and senior vice president of finance, was hired personally by Fred Pomerantz. However, Fred Pomerantz ended up taking the company back to a private entity for a few years in the 1980’s due to a buy out from his son John Pomerantz.
