A native of Robeson County, Jim Thomas found large success in the Los Angeles real estate business, earning the moniker of “architect of the LA skyline,” with his signature project being the 73-story Library Tower, which opened in 1989. It is now called the U.S. Bank Tower. Thomas and his wife, Sally, have donated nearly $10 million to UNC Pembroke, which was established in 1887 to educate Native Americans. That includes $7 million for a new business school building, scheduled to open next summer, that will bear Thomas’ name."
