Beiler is an American businesswoman and founder of Auntie Anne's pretzels.[1] Early lifeBeiler was born into an Old Order Amish family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in 1949. When she was three years of age, her parents became members of the Amish Mennonite church. Growing up in a family of eight children, Anne was the baker and bread maker among them. When she was a teenager, she had a waitressing job that taught her about customer service. Later, she worked at a food stand at a farmers' market. It was there that she learned how to make pretzels the old-fashioned, Pennsylvania Dutch way – soft and doughy. CareerIn 1987, Beiler started making hand-rolled pretzels at a market stand in Maryland. She then rented a stand in February 1988 in Downingtown, Pennsylvania and called it Auntie Anne's Pretzels. The Beilers decided to tweak the recipe and found success. Anne had no previous business experience and only a ninth grade education, but she had eight stand alone stores and her first Auntie Anne's Soft Pretzels store in a mall after a year. The only advertising the company had was the rave reviews from their customers.[2] In 1989, the first Auntie Anne's franchises opened throughout Central Pennsylvania.[3] Written worksIn 2002, Beiler wrote a story book style autobiography entitled Auntie Anne: My Story with illustrations by artist Frieman Stoltzfus.[4] In 2008, Beiler penned a memoir with her nephew Shawn Smucker entitled Twist of Faith: The Story of Anne Beiler, Founder of Auntie Anne's Pretzels published by Thomas Nelson Inc.[5] SpeakingBeiler delivered a speech at the 2008 Republican National Convention on September 3, 2008.[6] Personal lifeShe is married to family counselor and author Jonas Z. Beiler and the couple have two children, LaWonna and LaVale. The couple's daughter Angela was killed in a farming accident at age 19 months in September 1975.[7] On May 21, 2005, Beiler received an honorary doctorate degree from Elizabethtown College. She also holds an honorary doctorate from Eastern University. She also serves on the Board of Directors for the Museum of the Bible, which opened in 2017.[8] References1. ^Ilan Mochari, In a Former Life: Anne Beiler, Inc.'s Small Business Success Newsletter, September 1, 2000 {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Beiler, Anne}}{{US-business-bio-1940s-stub}}2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.cbn.com/700club/guests/bios/Anne_Beiler_030408.aspx|title=Anne Beiler: A Twist of Faith|website=www.cbn.com|access-date=2018-03-20}} 3. ^God has a plan {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061015033034/http://www.ag.org/pentecostal-evangel/conversations2001/4570_pretzels.cfm |date=October 15, 2006 }}, Pentecostal Evangel, December 9, 2001 4. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/auntie-anne-anne-beiler/1005985121|title=Auntie Anne: My Story|last=Noble|first=Barnes &|website=Barnes & Noble|language=en|access-date=2018-03-20}} 5. ^{{Cite book|url=https://www.amazon.com/Twist-Faith-Beiler-Founder-Pretzels/dp/1595553401|title=Twist of Faith: The Story of Anne Beiler, Founder of Auntie Anne's Pretzels|last=|first=|date=2010-01-11|publisher=Thomas Nelson|year=|isbn=9781595553409|location=Nashville, TN|pages=|language=English}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.c-span.org/video/?280790-1/2008-republican-convention-day-3|title=2008 Republican Convention Day 3, Sep 3 2008 {{!}} Video {{!}} C-SPAN.org|website=C-SPAN.org|language=en-US|access-date=2018-03-20}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=http://time.com/3111038/auntie-annes-pretzels/|title=This Is the Deeply Moving, Almost Unbelievable Story Behind Auntie Anne’s Pretzels|website=Time|language=en|access-date=2018-03-20}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.museumofthebible.org/leadership|title=Leadership|website=www.museumofthebible.org|language=en|access-date=2018-03-20}} 9 : 1949 births|Living people|American women in business|Elizabethtown College alumni|People from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania|20th-century American businesspeople|Pennsylvania Republicans|20th-century businesswomen|Businesspeople from Pennsylvania |
