Wallace Leroy DeWolf, sometimes also written as De Wolf, was an American lawyer, businessman, philanthropist, and artist. He was born in Chicago, Illinois, and spent most of his life in the city. Originally a lawyer, DeWolf founded a successful real estate company in 1894. In 1901, he was named the president of the Kellogg Switchboard & Supply Company. His seven-year tenure featured a stock controversy that reached the Illinois Supreme Court and resulted in a large strike.
