Since 1952, Bronx-born Edith Melvin has worked the Macy's ticketron, numatic tubes, telephone switchboards and finally, the information desk -- but she always knew "who slept with who, of course."

Produced by Emily Botein and Julie Subrin for "The Next Big Thing" on WNYC, 2002. Hosted by Dean Olsher.
