Before the American businessman became involved with Occidental Petroleum, which was a company that his grandfather, Armand Hammer, had led for many years, he worked at an investment banking firm in New York City. Occidental Petroleum was a company that his grandfather had led for many years.

Because of this, he was able to climb the corporate ladder and work his way up to the position of vice president of the organization, as well as earn a spot on the board of directors.
Throughout his career, Michael was the undisputed ruler of Hammer Productions, the Armand Hammer Foundation, Hammer Galleries, and the Hammer International Foundation.
