Event Details

Win was the sixth publisher of the Arizona Highways magazine, a task he excelled at for 18 years. He is now an informal ambassador for the magazine and will join us to talk about how Arizona Highways has remained relevant for a century. Through historical and contemporary photographs, we’ll learn how this fabulous publication has thrived by attracting elite landscape photographers and by using an unconventional publishing business model.

Win grew up in the Chicago area. He holds a degree in journalism from Southern Illinois University. After a delightfully circuitous route in advertising, he moved with his wife, Carolyn, and their
three children to the Valley in 1980. He has been recognized for his contributions by a variety of organizations, including the Arizona Office of Tourism, the Arizona Lodging and Tourism Association and the Business Journal. He was inducted into the Arizona Tourism Hall of Fame in 2007.

Lunch may be purchased online or reserve your place with Susan Howard and pay by cash or check by October 3.  Members with reservations are responsible for payment even if unable to attend.
