ENTREPRENEURS SEEK TO CAPITALIZE ON THE TINY HOUSE TREND, AND THE SHARKS FIND BUGS IN THEIR SNACK CHIPS, ON ABC'S 'SHARK TANK'

In the Fourth in a Series of Shark Profiles, Real Estate Mogul Barbara Corcoran Tells Her Story, Which Includes a Visit to Her Hometown of Edgewater, New Jersey

"Episode 815" -- Entrepreneurs from Somerville, Massachusetts, rent tiny houses in the woods where people can unplug, recharge and rebalance their lives; former Harvard University classmates now living in San Francisco hope the Sharks agree that snack chips made with cricket flour are the future of affordable and sustainable proteins; a concertgoer from Minneapolis, Minnesota could change the way people listen to music with earplugs designed to filter out damaging levels of sound while protecting one's ears; and an Austin, Texas couple created a modern version of a favorite childhood toy, but a deal might be in jeopardy when the Sharks learn that a majority of their revenue comes from a single source.

Real estate mogul Barbara Corcoran is featured in a profile highlighting her inspiring entrepreneurial journey. Years ago, she borrowed $1,000 from her boyfriend and quit her job as a waitress to start a tiny real estate company in New York City. Eventually, she would parlay that loan into a $5 billion business. Barbara, who was the first to sell real estate on the Internet, sees being a woman in business as an asset. A hometown visit to Edgewater, New Jersey, highlights her humble beginnings and the two-bedroom flat she shared with her parents and nine siblings, on "Shark Tank," airing FRIDAY, JUNE 16 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network.
