Melitta Bentz is an important figure in the storied history of one of the world’s most popular beverages: coffee. She came up with a better idea. She possessed the courage to invest in it. She earned the willing patronage of millions of happy customers. She employed thousands of people. She hurt no one in the process; indeed, she left the world in a small way better than when she found it.
