Just passing along an interesting email from the Nord Stern PCA Club.

Ferdinand Anton Ernst (Ferry) Porsche was born 100 years ago yesterday.

Born: September 19, 1909  Wiener Neustadt (Austria)

Died: March 27, 1998  Zell am See (Austria)

Nord Stern’s own Fred Senn spent some time with Professor Porsche and wrote a great article for Nord Stern and Panorama.  It is available here: http://pca.org/Panorama/AMomentwithFerryPorsche.aspx

You can see the fruit of Fred’s work with the Professor here:  http://pca.org/Panorama/AMomentwithFerryPorsche/FerryPorscheTimelessness.aspx

There is a lot of good information on Wikipedia here:

Christophorus 339 has a very good article as well.
