Early life
Lewis was born in Dayton, Ohio, USA, in 1947 and graduated from Groton School and Harvard University (AB 1969).[1]
Investment career
After working at the Boston Company, then one of the largest investment managers, where he became a vice president in 1972, Lewis in 1973 co-founded and served as co-chief executive and then chief executive of Cambridge Associates LLC,[2] an investment advisor to American research universities and colleges representing over three-quarters of U.S. higher education endowment assets, other non-profits, international organizations, and families, with offices in the U.S., Europe, and Asia.[2] Lewis was a co-inventor of what became known as the American University style of institutional investing,[3][4][5] which gave American university endowment funds the highest investment returns in the world among institutional investors,[6] and which became widely emulated.
Lewis retired from Cambridge Associates in 2018[7] and founded Hunter Lewis LLC, another investment advisory firm.[8]
During his investment career, Lewis also served as the treasurer of the World Wild Life Fund.[1]
