"Roaring Back to Life" — Founder Comeback Story
The relaunch follows a brief retirement by founder Mitchell P. Davis, who turned 70 on May 6 and initially stepped away from the business.
"That didn't last," Davis said. "There's only so much golf, bingo, and backgammon one can play."
By March, Davis had begun planning his return—anchored by the publication of the 44th Annual Yearbook of Experts, Authorities & Spokespersons, a directory first launched in 1984 as The Talk Show Guest Directory.
