About Mark Shoen

Mark Shoen owns roughly one-fifth of the publicly traded parent company of U-Haul.

Shoen's parents, L.S. and Anna Mary Shoen, cofounded the truck-and trailer-rental company in 1945.

He sided with his brother Joe in a nasty family feud in which Joe wrested control of U-Haul away from their father.

Shoen is also majority owner of one of the largest private self-storage operations in the U.S., which does business with U-Haul.

He keeps a low profile but apparently remains on good terms with Joe, who still runs U-Haul.
