Meyer Oppenheim information


Meyer Oppenheim (December 28, 1905 – May 24, 1982)[1] was a financier and philanthropist in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was chairman of James Grant & Co and Argyle Securities.

The family lived in The White House in Barnton which was later owned by David Murray and then the writer J.K. Rowling.[2]

Oppenheim bought the Royal Lyceum Theatre in 1960. He planned to demolish the building but later transferred ownership to the city in 1964.[3] [4]

He established the Meyer Oppenheim Trust and the Water of Leith Walkway Trust. A plague on the walkway commemorates his contribution.[5]

He endowed the Royal Scottish Academy with an annual RSA Meyer Oppenheim Prize for work in any medium by an artist under the age of 35.[6]

He is buried in Piershill Cemetery, Scotland.[1]
