Former Chico's CEO's art on exhibit

Marvin Gralnick will always be known as one of the founders of Chico's FAS, the women's retailer based in Fort Myers.

Gralnick and his wife Helene started Chico's on Sanibel Island with a single store. Today, publicly traded Chico's operates 1,472 stores in the U.S. and Canada and it has announced plans for stores in Mexico.

Gralnick, who retired from the board of directors of Chico's in 2006, has been a prolific artist since he retired. He's presented his paintings and sculptures in galleries, exhibitions and international art fairs.
