It’s the 1970’s. The foundation of big business starts to develop in me, and I learn somethingimportant from my dad, why he was so admired, and how he actually might have played baseball for the Dodgers.

How my love of beauty and fragrance was inspired, my first cutthroat deal (as a child), and the remarkable family business that awakened my entrepreneurial spirit, as an entrepreneur by nurture (not nature).
