David Klein (b. 1946) grew up in Southern California, where his innate curiosity and entrepreneurial spirit first began to take shape. As the original creator of Jelly Belly® jelly beans, Klein transformed a simple treat into a beloved household name-and in doing so, he set the stage for a life defined by creativity and determination.In 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Klein and his partner, Stephanie, launched The Gold Ticket, a nationwide treasure hunt that captured imaginations across the country. The initiative exemplified their playful ingenuity and brought joy to participants at a time when the world sorely needed it.A lifelong innovator, Klein shows no signs of slowing down. He's constantly dreaming up new projects and making meaningful connections through online speaking engagements, where he shares his inspiring message with audiences around the world. His story is a testament to the power of perseverance, imagination, and the courage to take risks.
