Grit, Passion, and 20/20 Vision

摘要

Call it karma, or call it coincidence, but hundreds of millions of copies of the document that best symbolizes Americas emergence from a public health disaster - the Center for Disease Controls COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card - came from a printing company that was once rescued by its former owner from the business equivalent of a fatal illness. The rescuer was Barry Green, who took an extraordinary step to save the company he started and the jobs hed created - but more about that and the cards later. Greens six-decade career is studded with the kinds of achievements that distinguish the men and women inducted into the Printing Impressions/RIT Printing Industry Hall of Fame, an elite circle he joins this year. Green enters its celebrated ranks as the chairman of the Phoenix Group of Companies, an enterprise that has come a long way from its origins in the business he put safely back on its feet nearly 20 years ago.
