SYNPOSIS: THE LEHMAN TRILOGY portrays the captivating saga of a family and a company that shaped the world, featuring three actors who portray multiple generations of the Lehman brothers. From their hopeful arrival in New York in 1844 to the dramatic collapse of Lehman Brothers 163 years later, this epic tale explores the rise and fall of the iconic firm, intertwining personal dreams with a global financial crisis.
Henry Lehman - The eldest brother. German Jewish immigrant from Bavaria; the first of his brothers to immigrate to the United States; the son of a cattle merchant; intelligent, resourceful, tenacious and proud of the business he is building; doubles as Philip Lehman, Pete Peterson, and others.
Emmanuel Lehman - German Jewish immigrant from Bavaria; the middle brother and second to immigrate; hot headed, intelligent, takes pride in whichever business venture it is that he is doing; often has conflict with his older brother on what is best for the business; he moves the business from the South to New York; he enjoys the finer things in life - 'always more, always better'; doubles as Herbert Lehman, Lewis Glucksman, and others.
Mayer Lehman - German Jewish immigrant from Bavaria; the youngest brother and last to immigrate; a level-headed and steady thinker; the mediator between his two elder brothers; charming, warm and ambitious; doubles as Bobby Lehman and others.
