James LeVoy Sorenson
:''For the Australian actor and model, see James Sorensen.
James LeVoy Sorenson (July 30, 1921 – January 20, 2008) was the founder of Sorenson Companies, a parent company of 32 corporations.
A noted philanthropist, he was the richest man in Utah with an estimated net worth of $4.5 billion at the time of his death.〔(Forbes.com - Magazine Article )〕
Sorenson was born in Rexburg, Idaho. With only a high school diploma, he made a fortune in local real estate before expanding in other directions such as innovative technology. Sorenson holds roughly 60 patents, and is credited with a number of medical inventions including the disposable surgical mask and the disposable venous catheter.〔(Sorenson Legacy Foundation )〕
One of his companies, Sorenson Genomics, has also begun a genetic database known as the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation, and claims to be the only laboratory in the world to have successfully identified victims in Thailand of the 2004 tsunami.
In 2003, Sorenson was honored as the "Alumnus of the Year" by Sierra College in Rocklin, California, which he attended from 1940 to 1941. His pre-med studies were interrupted by World War II and a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
On Wednesday, February 15, 2006, Sorenson received the "Giant of Our City" award in Salt Lake City for his philanthropy and effort in identifying the tsunami victims.〔(Salt Lake Chamber - Giant of Our City History )〕
Sorenson died on January 20, 2008 of cancer, aged 86. He was survived by a large extended family, including his wife, eight children and 47 grandchildren.〔(James Sorenson Obituary. Deseret News. 2008 01 22. )〕
