In the spring of 1956, there was a new arrival on Broadway.
Rex Harrison and
Julie Andrews starred in the hit show, "My Fair
Lady." Thousands of miles away in Denver, there was another new
arrival and he too, would leave his "Mark" on the world.
Mark Goldstein, President and CEO of Scott's
Liquid Gold, will turn 50 on April 4. Coincidentally, on the same
day, Scott's Liquid Gold will celebrate the 55th anniversary of the
company.
Both Mark and the Scott's Liquid Gold brand were born and
raised in Denver. Liquid Gold was started in his grandmother's
garage five years before his birth. Mark began his employment
unofficially, at the age of 13, working in the manufacturing plant
located near I-70 and Havana.
Mark is a graduate of George Washington High School and
Syracuse University and has worked full-time at Scott's Liquid Gold
since 1978. His father,
Jerry Goldstein was founder of the company and
he and Mark worked together until Jerry's death in 2000.
Mark is very proud of his long history and connection in
Denver. Many may recognize his voice on the radio each day on The
Fan with
Irv Brown. Scott's Liquid Gold is the sponsor of
Sports Trivia and has become a fixture on afternoon talk radio.
Mark and Scott's Liquid Gold have made their home in Denver.
Living in southeast Denver with his wife and three kids, Mark has
been a devout Bronco fan since 1968 and is a connoisseur of local
lore.
Best wishes to Mark and to Scott's Liquid Gold as they celebrate
half century of work and family here in Denver.
Barbara Goldstein is Mark's wife. She graduated from Northglenn
High School.
