  • Erica Connelly on Sara Blakely at Age 41, Sara Blakely Is the Youngest Self-Made Female Billionaire in the World. She Is the Fo
    Erica Connelly on Sara Blakely At age 41, Sara Blakely is the youngest self-made female billionaire in the world. She is the founder of the underwear and shaping garment company, Spanx. She is a wife, a mother, an community advocate for women, and a billionaire, and yet despite her hard work she has stayed true to who she is at the core. Biographical Sketch & Accomplishments Sara Blakely was born in Clearwater, Florida in 1971. The daughter of an artist and a lawyer, Blakely always had an entrepreneurial side. At the age of 7, she launched her first business, “charm socks”, which she made herself and sold to friends at school. In her 20s, she ran an under-the-radar kids club at the Clearwater Hilton, until the manager caught her and escorted her out. She attended Florida State University, and intended to go to law school. However, after two failed attempts at the LSAT, she gave up on becoming a lawyer. She spent the next seven years selling fax machines door-to-door, a job that was not glamorous, but that helped her develop sales skills that would drive her future success. As a saleswoman in the Florida heat, she battled with one particular part of her wardrobe…uncomfortable pantyhose. Out of this need came her idea for Spanx, footless shaping pantyhose. At age 27, she moved to Atlanta and invested her $5,000 in savings to launch her business. For two years, Blakely worked full days at Danka and spent nights at the Georgia Tech library working on her idea.
