Hetty Green: The Witch of Wall Street
Hetty Green was one of the wealthiest people of the gilded age, so famous in her time that she appeared in songs alongside names like Andrew Carnegie and J.P. Morgan, and yet was called by the Guinness Book of World Records “the world’s greatest miser". The History Guy remembers "the witch of Wallstreet".
