Marilyn Graham

Title: Associate Director of Facilities
Company: Time Warner, Inc.
Location: New York, NY United States

Everything Marilyn Graham has accomplished thus far can be traced back to her mom; she set the example, gave her courage, and pushed her to get out there and go for opportunities. When her mother was 75 years old, she built a two-car garage with a two-bedroom apartment on top from the ground up. CNN took notice of this accomplishment, which took five years, and ran a piece on it. Shortly thereafter, more than three decades ago now, Ms. Graham took a position at CNN working as an assistant with the supervisor. While she was there, a piece of carpet came apart and she showed her supervisor how to repair it. Ms. Graham didn’t know this at the time, but the chief was watching her work and, impressed by her skills, he promoted her to the facilities team a few weeks later.
