Location: New York, NY Restaurant: Paola's Osteria. Known as the 'Queen of New York City Real Estate,' Barbara Corcoran took the New York City real estate world by storm in 1973 as co-founder of The Corcoran Group.

Now, as a judge and 'shark' on ABC's Shark Tank, Barbara has made a career out of 'spotting success' and has been able to share invaluable business insight and broker deals with hundreds of contestants looking for their big business break. Barbara shares what she has learned over a lifetime of trial and error....and the #1 question she asks in determining if she wants to work with someone.
