    Description:

    Foster Holdings manages assets for the family that founded L.B. Foster Company, a Pittsburgh-based manufacturer and distributor (founded 1902) of rail and construction products. In 1977, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (KKR) acquired L.B. Foster through a leveraged buyout, and in 1981 took the company public trading its shares on the NASDAQ stock exchange (FSTR). Today, the Foster family is comprised of eighteen households spanning second through fifth generations. David Martin oversees the family's investments, educational programs for family members, generational planning, philanthropy and income tax planning and compliance.
