About David Tepper
Tepper founded Appaloosa Management in 1993 after working in the financial sector. His foundation biography connects that investment career with a long-standing philanthropic focus on opportunity and education. He established the Tepper Foundation in 1996, with early priorities influenced by the teachers in his family and ties to New Jersey. The biography also identifies him as owner of the Carolina Panthers and Charlotte FC and describes separate charitable initiatives in the Carolinas. Together, the investment-firm formation, sports ownership and education work provide useful context beyond the familiar Appaloosa name.
