America's Richest Self-Made Women

摘要

Hitch and her husband, Mike, who died in February, had a rare, equal partnership dating back to 1959, when they cofound-ed Little Caesars pizza, now a $4 billion (sales) chain. Known for her operational expertise, she also owns the Detroit Red Wings and MotorCity Casino Hotel. Mike's Detroit Tigers are now in a family trust. Son Christopher runs everything but the casino. Mrs. I, as she's known, is now fulfilling the couple's decade-long vision for a $1.2 billion sports and entertainment district in downtown Detroit.
