Lori Greiner

Lori Greiner was born Lori Husman. She is an American media personality and businessperson that is the Shark in the ABC reality business program Shark Tank. While in college, she was fascinated with custom-made jewelry. Her work continued to develop and market it up until she came up with the idea of creating an earring holder made of plastic. To gauge the reaction of women, people on the street Greiner showed her product to. In the end, she registered her invention and started selling it on different platforms, both online and offline in addition to adding more and more products. The company has already created and marketed over 1,000 successful products. She also holds over 120 US and International patents. Being a sharp thinker and having a solid business sense, she can tell instantly if a product can be described as a "hero or not" that has resulted in 90 percent of her success. In the conviction that if someone is lucky to be successful they should do something to make a difference for others, she donates annual contributions to various charities.
