David Giuliani (1946-2022) was a remarkably capable inventor and successful entrepreneur, best known as the co-inventor of the Sonicare toothbrush and the Clarisonic skin care system, and as co-founder and CEO of both companies. David built Sonicare into the fastest growing private company in the U.S. (in 1997) before selling it to Philips Electronics in 2000. He also led Clarisonic onto the list of fastest growing private companies in the U.S., selling it to L’Oreal in 2011. Responsible for over twenty patents, David was especially proud of inventing a hand-held ultrasound device capable of measuring bladder volumes, markedly improving the care of hospitalized patients and of those with neurogenic bladders around the world. David was a featured speaker at the White House Conference on Corporate Responsibility, and in 1997 was honored as the “United States Small Business Person of the Year.” That same year, he was selected as the “National Entrepreneur of the Year for Manufacturing” by Ernst & Young.
