Born March 24, 1951, and raised in Elmira, New York, Thomas Jacob Hilfiger grew up in an Irish Catholic family. At the age of 18 he opened a store called "The People's Place" in upstate New York. Seven years later it went bankrupt and Hilfiger left retail to design clothing. In a few short years Tommy Hilfiger, Inc. went public. From its modest start in men's jeans and sportswear, Hilfiger has grown into a half-billion-dollar empire with one of the most recognizable brands in the world.
