Isaac and Sophie each arrived in the US as immigrants in the early 20th century. They met, married and settled in Brooklyn, where they owned a grocery store and raised three rather successful sons:
Dr. Arthur Mitchell Sackler (1913–1987)
Dr. Mortimer David Sackler (1916–2010)
Dr. Raymond R. Sackler (1920–2017)
Isaac would tell his sons that nothing was more important than their good reputation and respectable Sackler name. He'd be horrified to know what's become of those now, thanks to the global opioid epidemic caused by his sons' Oxycontin invention and pharmaceutical industry exploitations.
