Life

Max Neuhaus came from a middle-class family in Düsseldorf. He joined AEG in Berlin in 1916, where he completed a commercial apprenticeship. In 1918 he was called up for military service, which he performed with a Prussian field aviator department on the western front. After the end of the war he continued his work at AEG in Berlin, where he quickly made a career in commercial administration. In 1938 he was appointed director of the company's finance department and in 1942 he was appointed chief representative . With the evacuation of parts of the AEG headquarters during the Second World War, due to the air war, Neuhaus moved with his wife and 3 children to Radeberg near Dresden, and from 1946 moved back to Berlin. Neuhaus immediately continued his work and managerial function at AEG under the then Chairman of the Board of Management Hermann Bücher and was able to make an important contribution to the company's recovery in the post-war period. In addition to his work for AEG, Neuhaus took on numerous supervisory board positions, for example at the Berliner Handelsbank, SA Hartung-Jachmann GmbH., Norddeutsche Kabelwerke AG., Typograph GmbH. and Kupfer-Walzwerk Berlin GmbH. After 50 years in the service of AEG, Neuhaus retired in 1966, but continued to exercise part of his supervisory board positions in other companies.

Max Neuhaus is the father of the painter and graphic artist Gert Neuhaus and the grandfather of the historian and art historian Patrick Neuhaus and the architect Daniel Neuhaus.
