The Rise of the Latrine Queen
Posted: May 23, 2014Melanie Lichtfeld, owner of Lichtfeld Plumbing in Madison, WI, is the self-proclaimed Latrine Queen. Although it’s a title she bestowed on herself, it’s one she’s fought long and hard for. Since she began running this family-owned business in 1981, she’s been struggling to gain respect in a decidedly male-dominated field.
Lichtfeld noted that despite her vast competency when it came to plumbing, most men would ignore or refuse to acknowledge her.
