Melissa and I are big fans of The Body Shop -- so, it's with great respect and sadness that we honor a truly wonderful woman:
Dame Anita Roddick, the Body Shop founder who combined success in business with a passion for environmentalism, died last night after suffering a major brain haemorrhage...One of the most succesful female entrepeneurs in British history, Dame Anita died at 6.30pm at St Richard’s Hospital in Chichester, according to a statement from her family. She was 64. [times online/uk]For those of you not familiar with The Body Shop -- click here -- and enjoy one of the few truly responsible and guilt-free shopping adventures you'll ever have. All companies should be this dedicated to giving back and respecting Mother Earth and it's inhabitants.
RIP.

don't know much about her but anyone who dares to incorporate environmental awareness in her business is cool in my book.
