Lessons From the Women of the Eagles

Growing up, Marnie Schneider was always on the road with her grandpa and mom. And while traveling was always an adventure for her, it meant work for her family.

Schneider is the granddaughter of Leonard Tose, former owner of the Philadelphia Eagles from 1969–85 and founder of the Ronald McDonald House. But Schneider’s family greatness doesn’t stop there. Her mom is Susan Tose Spencer, who became general manager, legal counsel and VP for the Eagles. To this day, Susan is the first and only woman GM for an NFL team.

One would think having a legendary mom and grandpa would mean Schneider grew up with glitz and glamour, but one would be wrong.
