1988

2011

Councilwoman Lisa Czelatdko‘s mom dug up a photo from 1988 for today’s installment of Then and Now.

“I was 17 years old,” Czelatdko said in an email.

“Now I’m going to be 43,” she wrote.

A photo of Czelatdko and actress Michelle Pfeiffer, by the way, has been the City Desk blog’s most popular “Separated at Birth.” The year-old post continues to get hits to this day. Click here in case you missed it.

Here’s more information about Czelatdko from the city’s website:

“When you love something, it inspires you.”

Her passion for volunteering includes a non-credited legislative internship, community social and planning events, being a County, State, and Congressional Delegate, PTO, and multiple organizations that advocate for children and families. Czelatdko has an MS in School Counseling from Eastern Illinois University and has taken MBA classes at UCCS.

Lisa Czelatdko is happily married to her husband Tom and has four children. In addition to her family, her interests include outdoor activities, volunteering, and traveling.
