History
Richard "Dick" L. Ponzi was born in New Castle, Pennsylvania, in 1934. In the late 1930s, his family relocated to Detroit, Michigan. He studied engineering at the University of Michigan, graduating in 1959. He then worked for North American Aviation in Los Angeles, California. In 1962, he and Nancy A. Berry were married; they later had three children. The couple soon moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, where Ponzi worked as a structural engineer for United Technology. In 1969, they moved to Beaverton, Oregon, where the Ponzis founded the Ponzi Winery the next year. While developing the winery, Dick Ponzi taught at Portland Community College until 1984.
