39. Arthur “Jerry” Kremer
2003 Power List
An attorney and former assemblyman, he had a hand in litigation on tobacco and the financial scandals of the ’80s. His Statewide Corporate Strategies is a powerful lobbying group. Gentleman Jerry has many ties left in Albany and is still a rainmaker in the legal community. LOVE HIM because he still works five days a week and sits on 162 different boards and committees. FEAR the hourly billing rate.
