Lemonade Stories: Inspiring Entrepreneurs and the Mothers who Made Them - Friday, May 7 on CNNfn

Thursday May 6, 2004
I just heard about this new film, Lemonade Stories: Inspiring Entrepreneurs and the Mothers who Made Them. It's airing on CNNfn on Friday, May 7, at 9pm EST. Now this is what I call "must-see TV". This film promises an answer to the age-old question: "Are entrepreneurs born or made?" The film's answer? They're raised!

Lemonade Stories focuses on some extraordinary entrepreneurs, their equally extraordinary mothers, and how they contributed to the entrepreneurial spirit of their children. Among the entrepreneurs profiled:

Richard Branson (Virgin Group) and his mother, Eve Branson (an entrepreneur herself)

The Simmons Brothers - Russell Simmones (Def Jam), Reverend Run (Run-DMC), and Danny Simmons (Def Poetry Jam)

Arthur and Molly Blank of Home Depot.

11-year-old Kelly Reinhart, founder of TPak International, who invented a thigh pack that won a million dollar contract with the US Army.
