BARRETT, Circuit Judge.

Defendant Ackerman, Hood & McQueen (AHM) appeals from a judgment entered in favor of Plaintiff Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on claims the EEOC brought on behalf of Phyllis Torbeck pursuant to the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e(k). Following a two-day bench trial, the district court determined AHM violated the PDA, and thus Title VII, when it fired Phyllis Torbeck due to her pregnancy. EEOC v. Ackerman, Hood & McQueen, Inc., 758 F.Supp. 1440, 1453 (W.D.Okla.1991). We affirm. 1
