Robert Bell

Author of: "From Lifeguard to Sun King"

Robert Bell: Once a middle class kid with poor grades and a rebellious streak, Bell, the founder of the Banana Boat sun care empire, became the model of success. After several mishaps, he started to focus his youthful energies on football and, later, business. Building Banana Boat from, literally, a garage operation to a global consumer products giant, Bell made several fortunes in the sun care industry. His introduction of high SPF sunscreens and other innovations put his products on the front line in the battle against skin cancer; a cause he remains deeply committed to. Honored by Presidents Clinton and George H. W. Bush, Bell is among America’s top business leaders.

"A great Entrepreneur and a true American Success Story..."
- George H.W. Bush, Former President of the United States of America

"Your product innovations are an asset to all . A real contribution to society. You certainly achieved the American Dream. Very impressive."
- Bill Clinton, Former President of the United States of America
