Biographical History

Frieda (F.S.) and Saul Shapira (S.S.), members of one of the five founding families of the Giant Eagle retail grocery business, were active members of the boards or advisory committees of a wide array of nonprofit and philanthropic organizations dedicated to Jewish causes as well as to civil rights, special education, interfaith relations, women's rights, and poverty. From the 1960s until her death in 2003, F.S. sat on the board or committees of nearly twenty organizations. Her husband S.S. was president and chief executive officer of Giant Eagle Markets from 1968 to 1980 and the first chairman of the Office of Economic Opportunity of Allegheny County.
