and
Ethel Heller Hutner
b @ June 1887 - Russia
(Ethel's mother, Anna Heller, was born in Russia around 1861)

Herbert had a brother named Simeon (FindAGrave Memorial: 35873549)
and a sister Roslyn "Rose" (married Jacob "Jack" Wasserman on September 1, 1937 in NYC) - Roslyn was born in 1912 and died in March 1994 in Bayonne, New Jersey.

Herbert Loeb Hutner was a private investment banker, attorney, and philanthropist to many Jewish causes.
A native of New York City, Hutner was born on December 21, 1908 to Nathan Milton Hutner and Ethel Heller Hutner. He graduated from Columbia University in 1928 and earned his law degree, also at Columbia, in 1931. He was admitted to the New York state bar the next year.
He married the former Marjorie Helen Mayer in New York City in 1941. They had two children: son, Jeffrey J., and daughter, Lynn.
In the 1940s, Hutner worked on Wall Street as a partner with Lester Osterman, who would become a prolific Broadway producer and theater owner, in the Osterman & Hutner brokerage partnership.
Over the next 20 years, Hutner was chairman of the boards of several leading manufacturing and engineering firms including Sleight & Hellmuth Inc., Pressed Metals of America, Struthers Wells Corp. and the Platinum Mining Co.
He also served for several years as president of the New England Life Insurance Co.
Hutner's life changed on November 5, 1962 when he wed the often-married actress Zsa Zsa Gabor. It was Hutner's second marriage and Gabor's fourth. The couple moved to Los Angeles and from then on his business endeavors were focused on investment banking. The marriage to Gabor ended in divorce less than four years later, on March 3, 1966.
Hutner married the American actress Juli Reding, 27 years his junior, on November 28, 1969, her 34th birthday; he was 3 weeks shy of his 61st birthday at their wedding. Yet, it was the longest-lived of his marriages, as they remained married until his death on December 7, 2008 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, 14 days shy of his 100th birthday.
Preceded in death by his parents, his sister Roslyn, and his brother Simeon, he was survived by his adoring wife of 39 years, Juli Reding Hutner; his children from his first marriage,
son Jeffrey Jay Hutner (and his wife, Jamie) and daughter Lynn Hutner Colwell (and her husband, Steve); step-son Christopher D. Taylor; and five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
