Many modern day sport executives have roots in the GSOE. Circus trained executives are common in major league baseball, NBA, NHL and major venue management.; 26 January, 2010 22:03
Bill Powell said...: These gentlemen were the pioneers of great promotion and marketing. There are no ones poor men. I have read extensively about Mr Fellow and Kelly and others from the early years of Ringling.

It is an honor to follow in their foot steps and I am humble and grateful that my name would be mentioned in the same sentence as these giants of early circus pr and promotion.

I am sure Ms. Wachter and Gold concur.

Respectfully Yours,
