Edwin Johnson, 'Godfather' of 401(k) Retirement Plan, Dies at 82
Bloomberg Businessweek 
Aug. 31, 2012
"Johnson was founder and chief executive officer of the Johnson Cos., a benefits consulting firm in Newtown that played a key, early role in refashioning retirement savings in the 1980s when defined-benefit pension plans declined in popularity. While an employee of his, Ted Benna, became known as the father of the 401(k), Johnson 'was its godfather,' the trade publication Pensions & Investments wrote in a 2001 profile."
