47. Yvonne Grant
2007 Power List
Grant lands on the list for the first time, with good reason: Her council, the largest in New York State, is responsible for the scouting activities of more than 40,000 young women and girls in Suffolk County. The operation is massive, with a headquarters in Commack, several satellites across the county, two summer camps and dozens of employees. The cookies have to pay for something, and Grant is the one who presides over the whole Tagalong.
