Johnny Gold
Jesse John Gold (25 June 1932 – 7 October 2021) was a British nightclub owner and operator. After studying at Brighton College and National Service with the 6th Royal Tank Regiment, Gold worked briefly in his father's bookmakers. He moved to London in the mid 1950s and was hired by Oscar Lerman to run the Dolly's night club. In 1969, along with Lerman and Bill Ofner, he founded the nightclub Tramp. Although, Gold thought the club might survive only 2 to 3 years, it became popular with celebrities. He sold his stake in 1998 but remained until 2003 as "greeter-in-chief". Gold retired to the Bahamas.
