## Life

In 2004 the Stroher family sold their almost 80% stake in Wella AG, the world's second biggest professional hair care group, to Procter & Gamble for $4 billion.

Silvia Ströher's 25% share has made this great-granddaughter of the company founder a very wealthy woman. She's married to Ulrich Ströher, né Fette, a former nurse who took her name when they married. Ströher is an art collector.
