Overview
Five California entrepreneurs are among them: Maria de Lourdes Sobrino of Carson, owner of Lulu's Desserts; the Silicon Valley's Meg Whitman, eBay president and chief executive; Ruth Handler, co- founder of Mattel Toy Co. in El Segundo and creator of the Barbie doll; Pickford, Hollywood actress and movie producer; and Juana Briones, a Latino rancher and trader who pioneered the settlement of Yerba Buena, now known as San Francisco. [Edith Mayo] wasn't surprised when told of a young black man who zipped through the exhibit, stopping only at the interactive display to hear [Oprah Winfrey] tell her career strategies and goals, and the twentysomething Asian woman who was drawn to the face of Angela Suyeon Kim. The woman stood atop Kim's business-practical shoes painted on the floor and listened as the Internet marketer, co- founder and former chief customer officer of equalFooting.com told her story. \"There's a whole big world out there\" [Barbara Newton] added. \"If one girl wanders through here and it opens her mind to possibilities, then it has worked. You just don't know what the possibilities are until you see them.\" * \"Enterprising Women: 250 Years of American Business\" continues at the Los Angeles Public Library through Sept. 19. The exhibit is on display in the Getty Gallery during library hours:10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday, 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday.
