Summary Vanity Fair Magazine reports that "Through massive real-estate projects such as New York's World Financial Center and London's Canary Wharf, the secretive Reichmann clan of Toronto became fabulously wealthy, the Rockefellers of the global ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. But the bankruptcy in 1992 would be followed by a greater tragedy: the mysterious and all-but-unreported death last year of the family's promising young heir, David, who had set out to forge an Israeli high-technology empire."
