Today's guest is an American entrepreneur best known for founding Domino's Pizza, Tom Monaghan. Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 1937, he faced a difficult childhood after his father died when he was young, and he grew up in an Orphanage and foster care. In 1960, Monaghan and his brother bought a small pizza shop called DomiNick’s, which later became Domino’s Pizza. Monaghan expanded the company into one of the largest pizza delivery chains in the world. In 1998, he sold most of Domino’s and focused on philanthropy and Catholic education. He founded Ave Maria University, Legatus, and continues to support many religious causes.
