Moe Radavitz

Moe Radavitz was one of the four founders[1] of the Delaware Valley-based automotive parts retailer The Pep Boys – Manny, Moe & Jack. He and three friends from The Navy, Maurice "Moe" Strauss, Emanuel "Manny" Rosenfeld and W. Graham (Jack) Jackson, each chipped in $200 to open their auto parts supply store on 63rd and Market Streets in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania after mustering out of the Navy in 1921.

Radavitz had left the company by the mid-1930s.[2]
