High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Russell Sage (4 August 1816 - 22 July 1906) was a financier and politician from New York, United States. Sage was born at Verona in Oneida County, New York. He received a public school education and worked as a farm hand until he was 15, when he became an errand boy in a grocery conducted by his brother, Henry R. Sage, in Troy, New York. He had a part interest in 1837-1839 in a retail grocery in Troy, and in a wholesale store there in 1839-1857. Paul Sarnoff, in his biography of Russell Sage, depicts his second marriage as loveless, having been arranged for appearance's sake after Sage's affairs had become known, and possibly never consummated. Some claim that the founding of Russell Sage College in his name was done out of spite for the man, who purportedly hated the concept of women getting an education. While there are apparently two buildings named "Russell Sage" at RPI, one (Russell Sage Dining Hall) is actually named after Sage's nephew Russell Sage II who graduated from RPI in 1859.
