Potamkin was born and raised in Philadelphia, He graduated from Germantown High School.[2] Due to financial difficulties brought on by the Great Depression, he dropped out of the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, and began selling chickens.[1] He was very successful and by the time he was in his early twenties, he owned 17 stores.[2]

In 1949,he opened a Lincoln-Mercury dealership in Northeast Philadelphia.[1] The store floundered and after discovering that the large Jewish population in the area avoided purchasing Ford cars due to the anti-Semitism associated with Henry Ford, he persuaded Israel's first president, Chaim Weizman, to accept a Lincoln as a gift in 1948 during a public event in New York City.[1] The gimmick worked and the store soon became the largest Lincoln-Mercury dealer in the United States.[2] In 1954, he sold out and opened a Chevrolet dealership in South Philadelphia[2] and soon after expanded into Newark and Miami.[1]

In 1972, General Motors convinced him to take over their company-owned Cadillac store in Manhattan;[2] GM has been losing money due to high real estate costs and had been unable to find an independent car dealer to take over the franchise.[1] Counter-intuitively, and to the chagrin of GM who wanted to preserve the allure of the Cadillac brand, Potamkin deeply discounted the selling price, correctly forecasting that there were many more customers who wanted to move up from lesser brands who were concerned about price.[1] He was widely successful with volumes increasing from 2,000 to 6,000 as buyers from throughout the region flocked to the Manhattan store enabling Potamkin to cover his high real estate costs and making the Manhattan store the world's largest Cadillac dealer.[1] His wife appeared in commercials using the slogan: "If this nameplate isn't on the back of your car, you probably paid too much."[3].[1] He continued to expand his network of franchises: at the time of his death in 1995, Potamkin had 54 dealerships in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Florida with $1.2 billion in sales.[1]

He established the Potamkin Prize for Alzheimer's Research which annually awards $100,000 to the person deemed to have done the most to help in the treatment of Alzheimer's
