“I am saddened by the passing of Marvin Traub, a proud New Yorker and a true symbol of what one can accomplish in New York City through hard work and creativity. Under Marvin's leadership, Bloomingdale’s became much more than a local department store, and thanks to his vision, today it stands as an iconic piece of New York and an important part of the retail sector that is so important to our economy. Marvin’s legacy will live on not only for New Yorkers, but also the millions of tourists from around the world who come to New York City each year to shop in stores like Bloomingdale’s.”
