NOV 2014 – snippet from Women in Business: Sue Heilbronner (read full article )

I admire Margaret Miner, who is a local entrepreneur in Boulder. Without any formal business education or a college degree, she began selling clothes out of her home on consignment. She built that basement business into a multi-unit, multi-million consignment store chain called Rags. She has an intuitive touch for growing companies and retaining talent. Even at pivotal times of growth and stress, she has an unwavering and contagious optimism.
