Bio
There’s a special energy at FMV. It’s source: Jack Buck. A rare combination of instigator, professional powerhouse and positive change agent, Jack has taken his special brand of creative problem solving and built a firm where he can realize his goals: to pursue more interesting opportunities, develop inspired projects and turn fresh ideas into reality.
Prior to founding FMV, Jack served as Principal of The John Buck Company, a real estate company responsible for the development, redevelopment and/or acquisition of more than 41 million square feet of office, retail, hotel and residential projects.
Outside the office, Jack advocates for a 21st century educational system through One Chance Illinois, a charity he co-founded. He’s also a board member of the Big Shoulders Fund and is a past Trustee of the Village of Winnetka. Jack is a proud Golden Domer where he got his undergraduate degree in English. A few years later he earned an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. While in college he started his own record label, because that’s what you do when you’re Jack Buck and you want to promote a band
