Fund managers are to Boston what lobbyists are to Washington, DC –- spit in any direction, and you’re likely to hit one. So, the Boston Globe’s "Boston Capital Fund Manager of the Year" award is a pretty serious competition.

This year, the honor went to Chuck Myers, who, not-so-shockingly, works at Fidelity [profile].

Myers gets the full profile treatment from columnist Steven Syre. Syre writes about how the 37-year-old manager of the Fidelity Small Cap Discovery Fund made his first investment with his father when he was a teenager, and tells a story about a young Myers demanding a meeting with the CEO of shoe company Steve Madden Ltd.

The story also gets into detail about Myers’ investment strategy for his funds –- small public companies, filling his fund with firms the average investor may never have heard of.

For all of the details, read the original article.
