Clare Sabatini - Battled Trump

Clare Sabatini owned a restaurant for over 40 years in Atlanta City. She fought a very public battle against real estate developer Donald Trump who attempted to use the eminent domain process to condemn her property in order to expand his Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino.

Her battle against Trump was chronicled in the "Doonesbury" comic strip in 1997. She eventually sold the restaurant to Trump for more then $2 million after a long and protracted struggle.

She died on April 23, 2010 in Atlanta City. No age or cause of death was disclosed by her family.
