Joseph Edward Simmons (September 9, 1841 – August 5, 1910) was an American lawyer and banker who served as president of the New York Stock Exchange, the New York Clearing House and of the New York Chamber of Commerce. Simmons practiced law in Troy until 1867, when he moved to New York City and became involved in the banking and brokerage business. In 1868, he became a partner of Benjamin L. DeForest (a brother of George Beach de Forest Jr.). In 1870, he was admitted to membership in the banking house of Grant & Co., a "conservative old Wall Street commission house,"[4] before retiring from the firm at the close of 1872 due to ill health. After a year spent recuperating in Florida, he returned to New York and resumed working on Wall Street.[2] In 1884, he was elected President of the New York Stock Exchange, assuming the presidency of the Exchange from Alfrederick Smith Hatch, whose firm Fisk & Hatch, had failed, along with other prominent firms such as the Marine Bank and Grant & Ward, a Ponzi scheme run by Ward which bankrupt the former President Grant. Simmons served as president of the Exchange for two terms until 1886 when he retired from the presidency and was succeeded by stockbroker James D. Smith
