Later, he enrolled on a scholarship at Fordham University, from where he emerged with a BA degree in 1965, graduating summa cum laude, after which he continued his education at Columbia Business School, where he earned his MBA degree. One of his professors at Columbia was Roger Murray, a well-known investing expert and the co-author of the Fifth Edition of “Security Analysis”, a book which is considered the basis of the value investing approach practiced by Gabelli throughout his career – the Graham-Dodd school of security analysis.
Soon after graduation, Gabelli was asked to work as a security analyst for Loeb, Rhoades & Co, responsible for coverage of auto parts conglomerates, farm equipment, and then media and broadcasting somewhat later.
