Do you know who my favorite self-made millionaire is? Her name is Madam C.J. Walker! She was the first Aftrican-American self-made millionaire in this country. Madam C.J. Walker was born on a cotton plantation in Louisiana and became wealthy after inventing a line of African American hair care products. She established Madame C.J. Walker Laboratories and was also known for her philanthropy.
