Who Owns the Ice House?

Eight life lessons from an unlikely entrepreneur

Co-authored with Pulitzer nominee Clifton Taulbert, Who Owns the Ice House? chronicles Taulbert’s journey from the cotton fields of the Mississippi Delta to becoming an internationally recognized author and entrepreneur. The result is a powerful and compelling story that demonstrates not only the power of entrepreneurial thinking as a means of individual empowerment and economic mobility, but also what happens when we encourage others to think and act this way.

“Required reading for humanity.”Keith Marmer, Chief Business Officer, University of Pennsylvania
“The eight life lessons Taulbert and Schoeniger describe are timeless examples of the power of entrepreneurship to overcome adversity and achieve independence, regardless of one’s circumstances.”Carl J. Schramm, former president of the Kauffman Foundation
