She is a Wonder Woman.  She co-founded ABC Supply with husband Ken Hendricks in 1982.

Here are my 4 Surprises
1.   She is from Beloit , Wisconsin
She is a Small Town, Big Billionaire.  This is a paradox which I encounter again and again.  I cannot explain it.  How can an entrepeneur make a huge amount of money in a small town?

2.   She is not the only Woman Self-made Billionaires from Wisonsin.  There is Judy Faulkner, who founded Epic Systems,

3.   Diane Hendricks made her fortune in Roofing, a field traditionally dominated by men.

Yes, ABC Supply is the company she co-founded in 1982 (in the depth of the recession) with her husband Ken Hendricks.  Here is ABC Supply's headquarter in Beloit, Wisconsin

4.  Wisconsin has out-produced Woman Self-made Billionaires (two , Diane Hendricks and Judy Faulkner) than  Tokyo (zero woman self-made billionaire), Paris and London

4.  The Hendricks have very little formal education
      Ken Hendricks is a high school dropout.
      Diane Hendricks just finished high school
