Michael Katz has over 35 years of experience in the financial services industry. He has been with Prudential since January of 2003, during which time he has consistently distinguished himself as one of the company's elite Financial Advisors nationwide. Michael is a perennial qualifier for membership in Prudential's prestigious Chairman's Council. He holds the Series 7, 63 and 65 securities registrations and the Life & Health insurance license. Prior to joining Prudential, Michael spent 18 years at Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management (PaineWebber's institutional investment advisory division) where he was Chief Financial Officer and also managed a private counseling group which focused on providing investment advisory services to high net-worth individuals and families, foundations, endowments, and institutions. Michael graduated from NYU, earning a BA in Accounting in 1983 and an MBA in Finance in 1984.
Michael and his wife, Laura, are the proud parents of their two sons, Brian and Kevin, and their cavapoo Lucy. Michael and Laura have lived in Woodbury, New York since 1989. They both enjoy an active outdoors lifestyle and, therefore, have recently started spending winters at their home in Boynton Beach, FL. On his free time, Michael likes to play tennis and golf. When she’s not hiking, running, or doing yoga, Laura volunteers her time by bringing Lucy (who is a trained and certified therapy dog) to Memorial Sloan Kettering to visit and cheer up cancer patients.
