Biography
Early life
Ahmanson was born on February 3, 1950. He is the son of Dorothy Johnston Grannis and the American financier Howard F. Ahmanson Sr. (1906–1968). His father was a prominent businessman in the savings and loan industry; Ahmanson, Sr. founded H.F. Ahmanson & Co. that thrived in the Great Depression and ultimately expanded throughout California and into New York state, Arizona and Florida. His father was well known for his support for the arts, an area in which the father and son share an interest. Howard Sr. found great pride in having a son, since he saw the opportunity to extend his own empire and legacy. Howard Sr. pursued a close relationship with his son, Howard Jr., whom he referred to as "Steady". Howard Jr. was intellectually inclined. He was reading by age 3 and was quoted in a local newspaper about thermonuclear reactions at age 8.
His parents divorced when he was ten years old. Despite the trappings of wealth, Howard Jr. was a lonely child. He has said, "I resented my family background, could never be a role model, whether by habits or his lifestyle, it was never anything I wanted." His father died when his son was eighteen, and Ahmanson Jr. inherited the vast fortune built by his father.
He attended Occidental College, where he obtained a degree in Economics. He then toured Europe, but returned because of complications with arthritis. He earned a master's degree in linguistics at the University of Texas at Arlington. Ahmanson's language fluency in Spanish, German and Japanese was a triumph over his Tourette syndrome.
In 1986, Howard married journalist Roberta Green, who supports him in philanthropic endeavors and has a specific focus and concern for visual art. She assumes a more hands-on role within those endeavors, namely Bridge Projects in Los Angeles.
Philanthropy
Organizations and projects
Fieldstead and Company, Howard and Roberta Ahmanson's personal donor organization, has a steady history of making contributions to a plethora of organizations and initiatives.

- →Fieldstead & Company has generously supported Voice of OC, a startup nonprofit newsroom founded by Norberto Santana, Jr. Troubled by the corruption he discovered in modern journalism, Santana started Voice of OC as an initiative to cover matters that empower, not exploit, the citizens within Orange County.
Howard has previously served as a board member for both the John & Vera Mae Perkins Foundation and the Claremont Institute. Ahmanson is a major supporter of the Discovery Institute, whose Center for Science and Culture supports ideas centered around intelligent design. Through Fieldstead, Ahmanson's wife Roberta, a former religion reporter and editor for the Orange County Register, has funded and been directly involved with some programs of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities, including the Washington Journalism Center that encompasses both the Summer Institute of Journalism, and the Fieldstead Journalism Lectures. Fieldstead has funded other Christian journalistic projects such as Gegrapha and GetReligion. A common thread in all of these organizations is a personal friend of Roberta Ahmanson's: Terry Mattingly, who directs the Washington Journalism Center at the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities, teaches journalism, and writes a weekly column for the Scripps-Howard News Service. Roberta Ahmanson recently co-edited a book called Blind Spot. Howard and Roberta are also supporters of The Media Project, an organization that "educates journalists on the importance of religion" and its digital magazine, Religion Unplugged. The Ahmansons have also supported the creation of the 29-volume Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture, published by InterVarsity Press.
Social advocacy and political involvement
Ahmanson was a major advocate for the property owners and tenants exploited in the abuses by California redevelopment agencies, especially concerned about the widespread abuse of eminent domain and public subsidies to private businesses. He financed the publication "Redevelopment: The Unknown Government" and the formation of Municipal Officials for Redevelopment Reform (MORR), alongside Chris Norby, California legislator and former mayor of Fullerton, California, in 1995. Norby later served in the California State Assembly when redevelopment agencies were abolished in 2011 and MORR was disbanded, having succeeded in its sole purpose.
Ahmanson was a registered Republican until 2008; Ahmanson, worried about the narrowing focus of the California Republican Party on lowering taxes, announced that he switched parties and was a registered Democrat from 2008 to 2018. Finding fault with both parties, he is now officially registered as a "No Party Preference" (NPP) voter (formerly referred to as a decline-to-state voter by the state of California). In the 2020 presidential election Ahmanson voted for and endorsed Brian Carroll of the American Solidarity Party.
Time magazine included the Ahmansons in their 2005 profiles of the 25 Most Influential Evangelicals in America, classifying them as "the financiers."In the 1970s, Howard became a board member of the Chalcedon Foundation and served until 1996. In 1996, he said he had left the Chalcedon board due to the fact that he "did not embrace" all of the teachings held by its leadership.
In 2002, the Ahmansons let the Orange County Register do a five-part series on them in 2004 to give the public a more accurate view of their work and beliefs.
Holding a strong interest and passion in the activity of standup paddleboarding, Howard has assumed a role of activism in opposition to a particular determination made by the United States Coast Guard (USCG) that enforces operators of standup paddleboards to wear a personal flotation device (PFD). In 2014, Howard, by way of attorney, offered a formal, public comment to the USCG that explained how the effort made to promote safety for standup paddleboarders had the potential to, in fact, make the water activity more dangerous as a result of such regulation.
Howard has contributed in numerous ways to different groups that exist to serve communities, better local schools and solving problems within the housing crisis. The following is a list, not exhaustive, of entities that Ahmanson has made significant contributions to in the past:
- Protect Our Homes Coalition
- Food for the Hungry (Thailand, Ecuador, Philippines and Zimbabwe)
- Harambee Christian Preparatory School (Pasadena, California)
- Victims of war in Nagarno-Karabagh
- Music education for schools in Orange County
- Western Center for Law and Religious Freedom

Bridge Projects
Bridge Projects is a Los Angeles based art gallery that consists of a community of artists, scholars, and collectors who are inspired by art history, spirituality, living religious traditions, and contemporary art practices. Roberta, wife of Ahmanson and current chair of Bridge Projects, founded the gallery and community with LA based artist, Linnea Spransy, back in 2017. While Howard played a supportive role in bringing this project to fruition, Roberta spearheaded the vision for Bridge Projects. Bridge Projects is home to a progressive art installation, "10 Columns" by prominent Southern California artist, Phillip K. Smith III.
