Walther Rathenau (September 29, 1867 – June 24, 1922) was a German industrialist and politician who served as Foreign Minister of Germany.
Rathenau was born in Berlin, the son of Emil Rathenau, a prominent Jewish businessman and founder of the Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft (AEG) electrical-engineering company.
