Dr. Fred Simeone - The Simeone Connection Column
Dr. Fred Simeone began his passionate interest in cars when he was a teenager, following in the footsteps of his father, also a doctor, who was one of the early collectors of classic cars in the 1950s. For over five decades, Simeone has assembled what has been recognized as one of the world’s great collections of racing sports cars. 
​
For 25 years, up until the time of his retirement in 2008, he was chief of neurosurgery at Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, and was one of the most active neurosurgeons in America. He is the author and editor of numerous papers and medical books. Simeone retired from active practice to devote himself to launching the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum in 2008. The museum has twice been selected as the foremost automotive museum in the world. For the past two years, Dr. Simeone has been at the top of the list of leading automotive collectors in the world compiled by the prestigious, Liechtenstein-based Classic Car Trust.
