George E. Johnson, the groundbreaking entrepreneur who was born in a Mississippi cabin and grew up to create an iconic company, has died at 99. By the mid 1960s, Johnson’s products controlled about 80% of the Black hair care market and in 1971, it became one of the first Black owned companies ever listed on the American stock exchange. Sunday TODAY’s Willie Geist remembers a life well lived.
