Are there any women building cues?

In chicagoland we recently had a woman who built her own pool tables, but I don't think I've ever met a fem cue builder....

There was a woman named Holly I met years ago that made cues. She said she worked with Bill Stroud. I met her in LV, but I assume she was from CO.

Laurie Franklin (aka Mrs. West) doesn't build cues, per se', but she's had her hand in the build of the cues back in the early years and for sure she captains the South West Ship.

I'm not sure Annie O really counts, but you might as well count her...

Ellen Drexler is partner with her husband Paul,she is without peer in making the high end fancy designs that no one else can touch

Laurie Franklin overseas the whole process from picking the best woods,especially shaft woods and running the show at South west cues

I don't personally know of any others at this time
 
I believe there was a woman involved in the Jackson Cue Company....
...in the shop.
 
...Gilbert Custom Cues...

Andy and Vicki Gilbert are both involved. Vicki inlays the cues coming out of their shop. :thumbup:
 
Who?

Really? who?
Beatrix Dobossy has a brand of cues calle Beassy-but I'm unsure if she builds them herself, likewise LuisElla Longoni.
There was Annie Oakley...
 
Annie O made a nice hitting cue. I hit a couple of balls with one in Houston years ago. I don't remember it being real fancy. Shame she passed away.---Smitty

Mike Bender's wife Tracy Dunham is half of Bender Cues.
 
Jessie Nester.

There was also one that wasn't really a woman, it was one of dem transtesticle thingies, that passed away. Anny O sounds familiar for that one but I could be wrong. To me that does not count as a female cue builder.
