when you of heinz, you think of pittsburgh. we are at the senator john heinz pittsburgh history center and we are going to take a tour of the heinz exhibit. h.j. heinz was only 10 years old when he sold his first product. his mother made horseradish in a basement in sharpsburg just a few miles of the allegheny river from downtown pittsburgh. he put the horseradish and other products in a wheelbarrow and rolled them down to downtown pittsburgh and sold them on the street. people loved the product. he ran home and said what else can we sell? she made bottles and jars of other things and a food giant was born. pittsburgh and heinz went hand-in-hand. heinz became the largest food purveyor in the world. his first product was horseradish. in 18 69, he started the business for real. he had a partner named noble. that partnership didn't work out so well, so he brought a brother in, frederick, it was f and j heinz company in 1869. after a while, he figured out he could make it on its own and the h.j. heinz company became a legend. one s

so he left the university of pittsburgh and he went to la jolla, california. i don't know if you've ever been to la jolla, but it's this absolutely jewel of a city, small city right on the pacific ocean. he got the city to contribute land on a bluff overlooking the ocean. you couldn't ask for a nicer location. he got the foundation to provide some seed money, like $15 million. he hired the most pre-eminent architect in the country to do the design for this institute. so he now has his, in a sense, he has exactly what he wanted. obviously expenses were high. the foundation began to withdraw its support from salk, it moved on to other things and o'connor died. salk himself had divorced his first wife, he then married the former -- picaso's former mistress. he began to dress in these elegant clothes, et cetera, and he had his good life in california. he did engage in aids research, but by then he was a very, very different, different person. so some of this rivalry continued and of course there are all kinds of other issues we haven't even had time to -- to discu
