Some of the interesting people with whom we had business dealings on behalf of our sales promotion ideas company, Don Marketing.
Our first business foray into the United States was in 1979 when we met at the New York Hilton with Bertrand M. Fainberg, Director of Business Affairs at ABC Television Network.
While on that same visit to NY, we also met with NBC Entertainment President, Myron “Mike” Weinblatt (left).
My colleague Don Redhead and I made a presentation to him and the full board of NBC (with the exception of Fred Silverman) at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York.
Also present; Irwin S. Segelstein (President NBC Television) and W Watts Biggers (Buck Biggers – shown right) NBC VP Advertising & Promotions ( a famous American novelist and co-creator of the long-running animated television series Underdog.
