Rags-to-Riches Tycoon and Best-Selling Author Headline '09 MAPcon
John Paul DeJoria's rags-to-riches biography exemplifies the American dream - he is a first-generation American turned entrepreneur, philanthropist, government servant, and pillar of the business community. John Paul DeJoria has struggled against the odds not only to achieve success, but to share this success with others. He knows firsthand what it's like to be the 'underdog,' and strives to help as many as possible overcome their challenges and achieve their full potential.
The prestigious Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans - an organization that honors selected individuals who have overcome humble beginnings and adversity to achieve success - recently recognized John Paul for his exemplary journey. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas inducted John Paul as a lifetime member in a ceremony that took place in the Supreme Court of the United States. Members of the Association - including such notables as Secretary of State Colin Powell, Former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, Oprah Winfrey, Norman Vincent Peale, and J.C. Penney - mentor young people and sponsor over $5 million in Horatio Alger need-based scholarships awarded annually to high school seniors who have proven their ability to overcome adversity and humble beginnings. http://www.paulmitchell.com/About_Us/Pages/TheStory.aspx  Morning Keynote Speaker - Peggy McColl NY Times Best-selling Author
