90. Bishop William H. Graves, Senier Bishop CME Church & TVA Board

It's hard to argue with the list and we certainly are proud of all of the Memphians for the difference they are making in our city, our region and our state on a daily basis. Some of these people even have national and global influence (Fred Smith and the St. Jude people for example).

Business TN is a fantastic business publication. For the full list and many great articles about business and the business community in Tennessee check out Business TN.
