Maybe He Couldn’t Hang the Drapes
NEW YORK — Evelyn Y. Davis, a self-proclaimed stockholder activist known for bluntly advising corporate bosses to--among other things--get lost, said she has politely told her third husband to do the same.
Davis, 64, didn’t explain the reasons for the divorce with Walter Froh, 66, a retired economist she married in August, 1991.
Davis, a millionaire with stock in 120 corporations, has been the buzz at the companies’ past annual meetings.
She once gave May Department Stores Co. Chairman David C. Farrell a $1,600 check and the warning: “David, please make sure your man is on time when he comes to hang my drapes. I’m a busy woman.”
