George Lindemann, a former Palm Beach resident, entrepreneur and vice president of the Metropolitan Opera Association in New York City, died this week. He was 82.
Lindemann tied for 703rd place on Forbes’ world billionaire list in March with an estimated net worth of $3.3 billion.
Lindemann bought a North End oceanfront home on the island in 2008 but sold it in June 2017, and soon after took a trip with his wife, Frayda, to sail the Mediterranean.
According to Forbes, Lindemann graduated from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and began working for his father’s cosmetics company in 1957.

He also founded Metro Mobile, a cellphone company he sold for $2.5 billion to Bell Atlantic in 1991.
Lindemann was an avid art collector, a hobby that his sons have continued. According to Forbes, George Lindemann Jr. runs the Bass Museum in Miami and Adam Lindemann has a gallery in New York City.
