Which of these cosmetics pioneers was born in the USA?

Estée Lauder (July 1, 1906 or July 1, 1908 – April 24, 2004) was an American businessperson. She co-founded with her husband, Joseph Lauter (later Lauder), her eponymous cosmetics company. Lauder was the only woman on Time magazine's 1998 list of the 20 most influential business geniuses of the 20th century.

Lauder was born Josephine Esther Mentzer in Corona, Queens, New York City, the second child born to Rose (Schotz) Rosenthal and Max Mentzer. Her parents were Hungarian Jewish immigrants, her mother from Sátoraljaújhely and her father from Gelle (now Holice, Slovakia).

Rose emigrated from Hungary to the United States in 1898 with her five children to join her husband, Abraham Rosenthal. But, in 1905, she married Max Mentzer, a shopkeeper who had also immigrated to the United States in the 1890s. When their daughter was born, they wanted to name her Eszti, after her mother's favorite Hungarian aunt, but decided at the last minute to keep the name "Josephine", which they had agreed upon. Immediately though, the baby's nickname became "Estee", and which is the name she grew up responding to. Eventually, when she launched her perfume empire with her husband, she added an accent mark to make her name sound French and began pronouncing it the way her father pronounced it in his Hungarian accent.
