May 9, 2008 In the early 1950's, George Horwitz had a vision. Always intrigued by electronics and transformers, he knew he could use this passion to create a unique company, founded on the principle that every customer, every supplier, and every employee is part of his family, and should be treated as such. George's hands-on approach and dedication to his customers is evident in one of his favorite stories in which engineers designing one of the original television sets had a big problem. The test picture on the screen was completely backwards, and the engineer could not figure out why. George flew to the factory to check it out. He immediately found the problem - the two transformer lead wires were reversed. George reached in, reversed the wires, and the test picture faced the proper direction. The engineers were stunned - and mortified - to which George replied, "don't be - that's what I'm here for." Over the years, George saw many developments in transformers and the areas in which they are used, but continued the family philosophy that was around when he started the company through the management and operation of three generations at Mitchell Electronics. WE'LL TREAT YOU LIKE FAMILY . . . is the philosophy that we at Mitchell Electronics live by. To us, it's not just a slogan - we say it because we mean it, a fact that our loyal family of customers will attest to.

His daughter Nancy Lerner joined the company in the 1970's. Her son, Jonathan Lerner joined the family business in 1982. Mitchell Electronics' staff of 35 service, design, and production workers - as well as the many satisfied customers - round out the family that George established in 1956.
