It's not just a rumor. Chuck Wolf got started in business in
Atlanta with the aid and encouragement of his uncle, David
Ritzman, founder of Ritz Camera. When Wolf tried to expand too
quickly and got into financial straits, filing a Chapter 11
bankruptcy petition, Uncle David took over. It's still "Wolf
Camera" in a lot of places, particularly here in Atlanta, even
though Ritz runs the show.
