Dan Storper is the founder and CEO of the record label Putumayo World Music.
==Early life==
Dan grew up in Great Neck, NY. He was a bright student and a recipient of a New York State Regents Scholarship. He was also a talented athlete and musician. He started at third base for Great Neck South High School's varsity baseball team and played varsity tennis in college. He also earned money by playing the piano at restaurants and other local venues. He began to hone his entrepreneurial skills at a young age by trading coins and antiques while in junior high and high school. As a college student he set up a store in his dorm providing the usual necessities of dorm life such as toiletries and ordering LP's at substantial savings to his fellow dormmates. Dan majored in Latin American Studies at Washington University in St. Louis. After graduating in 1973, he headed to Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia to visit the countries he had studied. Putumayo, named after the valley of the Putumayo River in Colombia, began as a hole-in the-wall retail store in New York City in 1975. Dan filled his small shop with handcrafts and clothing collected in Latin America. The store received considerable media attention and by 1985 Dan found himself designing ethnic inspired contemporary clothing and supplying 600 other stores. Putumayo also had three successful New York stores patronized by such clients as Jane Fonda and Mia Farrow.
