Time flies
“[Robert] McCullough will be retiring at the end of this year, Penguin Random House Canada CEO Kristin Cochrane announced last week.”
Wow.
Robert was a BC publishing powerhouse and an instructor when I was at the Banff Publishing School in ’95. Kristin on the other hand was in my group “HarperMac” at the very same course. (She obviously got a lot more out of it than I did lol).
I still have the binder with all the materials we got during the two week intensive.
It’s remarkable how well she’s done. and funny/ironic she was there to preside over Robert’s retirement. Life sure is funny.
Funny story. If Kristin remembers me at all its because I continually annoyed her by getting her name wrong. I blame it on the intensive nature of the course, but I don’t expect I’d get any high paying job offers from Penguin any time soon 🙂
All I have are bad pictures:
