David Rubenstein long ago moved on from Baltimore. Now he’s king of Birdland.

As a boy, David Rubenstein lived in a red-brick rowhouse house on Fallstaff Road in Northwest Baltimore. He went to City College high school, where he was friends with future Baltimore Mayor Kurt Schmoke and gravitated toward government and civics studies. At 75, he’s the fun-loving owner of the Orioles, turning up game after game at Camden Yards as the team limps toward the playoffs.
