2nd Runner-Up: Charlie Brown III
President and CEO Charlotte State Bank, Port Charlotte
Charlie Brown did not intend to become a banker. He wanted to become a financial analyst at a big firm. But when he was in high school in Ohio, Brown's father, also a banker, urged Brown to get a job at a bank, while his friends were bagging groceries. He became a teller at age 16; the rest is history.
