Emerson Spartz

Emerson James Spartz is the CEO of Chicagobased Dose and the founder of MuggleNet, a Harry Potter fansite.

Spartz was born in La Porte, Indiana to Tom and Maggi Spartz. He is the oldest of three brothers. At the age of twelve, Spartz convinced his parents to allow him to drop out of school and homeschool himself. He developed his own curriculum, which his parents supplemented by requiring him to read four singlepage biographies of successful people every day, which were collected from the pages of Investors Business Daily. Spartz has subsequently attributed some of his entrepreneurial success to reading these short biographies.
