Diamond Dealer Manny Gordon Dies of COVID-19
The Brooklyn native and founder of Manny Gordon Trading was 79.
New York—Beloved diamond dealer Emanuel “Manny” Gordon died on April 7 of COVID-19.
He was 79.
The namesake founder of Manny Gordon Trading was born in Brooklyn, New York’s Williamsburg neighborhood, the youngest of eight children to parents Isaac and Dora Gordon.
From humble beginnings, each sibling found success in their various chosen professions.
Manny Gordon got his start in the jewelry industry working as a traveling salesman for GC&G before joining his brother-in-law, famed diamond dealer William Goldberg, in the diamond business.
Goldberg “was like a big brother to Manny,” the company said in an Instagram post.
In addition to their family connection, the two became close friends and, eventually, business partners.

Gordon was preceded in death by brothers Eli and Shimon, and sisters Gertrude and Beatrice.
He is survived by his wife Stephanie; four children, Patrice, Isa, Josh and Noah; one granddaughter, Madyson; one brother, Sidney; and two sisters, Lili and Beverly.
