About the author
Philip A. Fisher (1907–2004) was an investor who founded the investment counseling firm Fisher & Co. in San Francisco in 1931 and ran it until he retired in 1999. He was an early proponent of growth investing, buying outstanding companies and holding them for long periods. His first book, Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits (1958), became a best-seller, and Warren Buffett has cited him as an influence.
