Howard Schultz: Afraid of my war-stricken father

Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz describes his family life growing up in the projects in New York City, sharing the challenge of being proud of his background, but saddened by some of his memories. He also notes that his experience being raised in an impoverished area is what gave him the work ethic to pursue ownership of Starbucks. Howard even looks back on the memory of his mother taking him to see a speech by President John F. Kennedy, a figure he believes gave her hope for Howard’s eventual success. #JFK #NYC #Starbucks
