Patrick Joseph Frawley, Jr. (1923–1998) was a Nicaraguan-American business magnate whose portfolio included Paper Mate, Schick, and Technicolor, Inc.[4] A devout Catholic, he was a leading American conservative figure from the late 1950s onward.
[1] He grew up in San Francisco, though he dropped out of high school and returned to Nicaragua as a teenager to learn the ways of business from his father.
[1] Because of his father's United Kingdom citizenship,[1] Frawley enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force and served in World War II.
By 1970, Twin Circle Publishing broadcast daily radio hits and a weekly half-hour television show espousing Frawley's conservative Catholic views.
[1][11] Also in 1970, Canadian theatre and film producer Harry Saltzman won control of Technicolor from chairman Frawley in a proxy fight.
