"George Zimmer revolutionized the men's garment industry when he opened the Men's Wearhouse. From a single store, he grew the company into the world's largest men's specialty retailer. Millions of Americans knew him by his trademark commercial pitch: "I guarantee it." At the height of his success, George suffered a shocking ouster orchestrated by his hand-picked board of directors. Now, George returns to tell his story, from his upbringing in Scarsdale, New York, to his roll through the sixties, to his creation of the Men's Wearhouse, where he established an early model of what later came to be called stakeholder capitalism.
