Dr. Letitia Plummer’s story is one of legacy, compassion, and service
to the people of Harris County. A proud daughter of an immigrant
mother, granddaughter of trailblazers, and lifelong advocate for
justice and equity, she embodies a family tradition of breaking
barriers and serving others.
Her grandfather made history as the first African-American judge in
Texas and courageously desegregated the Harris County cafeteria
system, helping lay the foundation for fairness and inclusion in local
government. Her grandmother, a devoted educator, inspired generations
through the power of learning. Her father served the Department of
Defense and Harris Health as a dentist, dedicating his career to
improving access to care for underserved communities.
A product of Houston’s public school system, Dr. Plummer has been a
successful small business owner for more than 25 years. Through her
dental practice, she has provided compassionate care, mentored young
professionals, and created jobs in her community.
