Entrepreneur, Philanthropist and Talk Show host Arrington Gavin is the featured guest on this edition of Another View. By the time he was 14 years old, he had a full beard and an issue: As a student at a private school, he had to be clean shaven, which lead to irritated skin. Once he got to college, the beard came back but it needed to be groomed. So, he started his own beard care and grooming company- just one of the many accomplishments for this thirty-year-old. An engaging conversation with businessman Arrington Gavin with host Barbara Hamm Lee on this edition of Another View. This, and all Another View Programs can be heard at WHRO.org under the show's program page.
