Gary L. Toebben, President and CEO of the Greater Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, is presented the 13th Annual Grinni Award for, among many other reasons, his percipient, inspiring and trailblazing work in bringing and fostering “Business-friendly Climate Change” to Los Angeles, his help in optimizing employment, education, and cultural enrichment opportunities for the people of this city, his muscular and efficacious efforts to increase the Gross Domestic Product of our civic region, and for his chief, high yield, waxing crescent smile!

The Grinni Awards were created to help promote the importance of good oral health and hygiene to the public by honoring a positive, dynamic, influential, and readily identifiable person that helps to make the world a better and brighter place to live and has an anatomically and orthodontically great smile.
