Mary Kay Ash (May 12, 1918 – November 22, 2001) was an American businesswoman and founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics, Inc. ==Early life== Mary Kay Ash, born Mary Kathlyn Wagner in Hot Wells, Harris County, Texas, was the daughter of Edward Alexander and Lula Vember Hastings Wagner.〔Leavitt, Judith A. (1985) ''American Women Managers and Administrators'' Greenwood Publishing, Westport, Connecticut, p. 14, ISBN 0-313-23748-4〕 Her mother was trained as a nurse and later became a manager of a restaurant in Houston.〔Ash, Mary Kay. ''(Mary Kay )'', October 1981, Harper & Row, ISBN 0-06-014878-0〕 Ash attended Dow Elementary School and Reagan High School in Houston, and graduated in 1934.〔"(Distinguished HISD Alumni )." ''Houston Independent School District''.〕 Ash married Ben Rogers at age 17. They had two children, Ben Jr. and Richard Rogers. While her husband served in World War II, she sold books door-to-door. After her husband's return in 1945, they divorced. Ash later had her only daughter, Marylin Reed. Ash went to work for Stanley Home Products. Frustrated when passed over for a promotion in favor of a man that she had trained, Ash retired in 1963 and intended to write a book to assist women in business. The book turned into a business plan for her ideal company, and in the summer of 1963, Mary Kay Ash and her new husband, George Arthur Hallenbeck,〔 planned to start Mary Kay Cosmetics. However, one month before Ash and Hallenbeck started Beauty by Mary Kay, as the company was then called, Hallenbeck died of a heart attack.〔 One month after Hallebeck's death on September 13, 1963 when she was 45 years old〔 with a $5,000 investment from her oldest son, Ben Rogers, Jr. and with her young son, Richard Rogers taking her late husband's place, Ash started Mary Kay Cosmetics.〔 The company started its original storefront operation in Dallas.〔 Ash was widely respected. She considered the Golden Rule the founding principle of Mary Kay Cosmetics and the company's marketing plan was designed to allow women to advance by helping others to succeed. She advocated "praising people to success" and her slogan "God first, family second, career third" expressed her insistence that the women in her company keep their lives in good balance. Mary Kay Ash died in Dallas, Texas November 22, 2001.
