 Barbara
Corcoran’s credentials include straight D’s in
high school and college and twenty jobs by the
time she turned twenty-three. It was her next
job, however, that would make her one of the
most successful entrepreneurs in the country,
when she borrowed $1,000 from her boyfriend and
quit her job as a waitress to start a tiny real
estate company in New York City. Over the next
twenty-five years, she’d parlay that $1,000 loan
into a five-billion-dollar real estate business.
Barbara is the author of If You Don’t Have Big
Breasts, Put Ribbons on Your Pigtails, an unlikely
business book that has become a national best-seller.
In it, Barbara credits her struggles in school and her
mother’s kitchen-table wisdom for her imagination and
her quick wittedness in the business world. The book is
a fresh, frank look at how to succeed in life and
business and is as heartwarming as it is smart and
motivating.
In
2005 Barbara’s entrepreneurial spirit prompted her to
start a new venture, the television production and
business consulting company Barbara Corcoran Inc. She
is a regular contributor to the Fox News Network and
ABC’s Good Morning America and The View.
As
a speaker, Barbara brings her front-lines experience and
infectious energy to every person she meets.
Motivational, inspirational, and sometimes outrageous,
Barbara Corcoran’s tell-it-like-it-is attitude is a
refreshing approach to success.
