David Kraft is the youngest of four sons born to Robert Kraft, billionaire owner of the New England Patriots and founder of The Kraft Group, and his late wife Myra Kraft (d. 2011-07-20); he was raised in a Jewish household alongside siblings Jonathan Kraft, Joshua Kraft, and Daniel A. Kraft. He was educated at the elite Belmont Hill School (where he wrestled on the varsity team), Columbia College (following his father's path), and Harvard Business School. David served as President of Kraft Sports + Entertainment, overseeing the New England Revolution, until a public falling out with his father led him to depart the family business in 2012. This conflict escalated into a notable dispute over the 1982 Kraft family trust, during which he voiced strong concerns that proposed restructuring would limit his access to family assets, stating fears of being 'robbed blind' and that it represented further consolidation of control by his father. The dispute reached the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court in a case involving trustee Richard Morse and the Kraft sons; the 2013 ruling permitted the transfer of assets to a new trust structure allowing the sons to serve as trustees. Since leaving the Kraft Group, David has maintained a low public profile and pursued an independent path outside the core family enterprises, including the New England Patriots and Revolution organizations. He continues to be recognized as part of one of New England's most prominent business families but operates with minimal visibility in sports or corporate affairs. Little public information is available on his early life or personal details beyond family ties.
