Honoring Dr. Carl Johnson
II-VI Incorporated

Submitted by Gregory Quarles OSA

Dr. Carl Johnson

Much of the past 20 plus years of my career has been enabled by the passion and mentoring from Dr. Carl Johnson, Founder and former CEO and Chairman of II-VI Incorporated. When Carl led an acquisition of a former company, he found time to mentor me over a decade on how to transition from being a high level materials scientist to a scientist that has a skill set to adapt to the business aspects of corporate boards, M&A skills, and corporate leadership. This mentoring transitioned my career.
