Charles Perniciaro

Charles Vincent Perniciaro (pern-uh-SHA-row), born June 15, 1957 is a dermatologist, dermatopathologist, educator, and entrepreneur in Tampa, Florida. Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, and raised in suburban Arabi, Louisiana, Dr. Perniciaro trained in dermatology and dermatopathology (microscopic skin pathology) at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. The author of over fifty medical and scientific publications and book chapters, Perniciaro is a thought leader and recognized expert in the fields of dermatology and dermatopathology. He was selected by his peers in The Florida Society of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery as Florida's "Practitioner of the Year" in 2009[1]

Business and management interests

In the 1990s, while working full-time as a dermatologist, Perniciaro founded a successful corporation, Jingle Lights, which rented and installed Christmas lights on residences, shopping centers, and skyscrapers in the metropolitan region of Jacksonville, Florida.[2]

Personal life

Perniciaro is married to the former Gail Morrison Kahler.[3]

In 2010, Perniciaro became concerned about a number of public policy issues, particularly developments in public school education, and ran a vigorous campaign in a five county district in Northeast Florida for the Republican nomination to the Florida State Senate. An ardent fiscal conservative, Perniciaro's campaign called attention to the basis of true fiscal conservatism, as well as to damaging trends in public education.[4][5] Although Perniciaro's bid for the nomination did not result in his election,[6][7][8] it pressed the issues he espoused into the political dialogue.
