The digital age, however, has presented Marquis and its listees with so many different avenues for documentation, networking, exposure and branding — we would be remiss not to credit its ability to propel us forward and afford us the potential to learn, grow and become closer as a societal whole. In the more recent history of Marquis Who’s Who, we have endeavored to leverage digital forums to provide our listees with unique, impactful and valuable commemorative and networking opportunities. In addition to personal websites, we offer press release distribution services, radio and video opportunities, prominent narrative features included on our Top Professionals suite, and digital issues of Millennium Magazine. Indeed, technology has introduced an array of publishing formats, greatly expanding opportunities to secure and convey one’s legacy. That said, for all of our recent biographical efforts in the digital arena, there’s still nothing quite like print, and there’s nothing more bearing than the voices of our listees calling out from the page to their peers, mentees, friends and family, communicating their unique stories and sharing their insights and advice for success. In this spirit, we are delighted to present the first issue of Insight, a modern print series that brings a dynamic tone to the page via a Q&A format — an intimate storytelling adventure featuring listees from many diverse fields of endeavor, who wish to transmit their visions and knowledge, thereby memorializing their bodies of work. Naturally, in order to continue our digital efforts in publishing, this series features an online component that is easily shareable with a worldwide audience. We trust you will enjoy thumbing through the pages of Insight to meet the listees profiled within, and we welcome you to reflect on your own adventures and achievements in your professional field as you do so. Most sincere regards, Renée Dutcher-Pryer Director, Editorial Services
