Lori Greiner

Lori Greiner (born Lori Husman) is an American TV host and entrepreneur. Since 2009, she's appeared as either a Shark, or as an investor on ABC's show on business and reality Shark Tank. She was interested in custom jewelry while in the college years, and would continue to create and sell the items until she came upon the idea of creating a plastic Earring organizer. She then showed it to females in public to gauge their reaction. She registered her invention, and then began to sell it via the internet, and also offline. She kept adding items. Her portfolio includes over 1000 successful products, 120 US patents as well as international. Her business-savvy skills allow her to instantly determine if an item has the capacity to become "a heroes" and if it is not. In the end, the vast majority of her items her company sells are extremely successful. Being of the belief that if a person succeeds, it is imperative to take action to aid others, she annually makes donations to charities of all kinds.
