BSI Names 2007 Person of the Year

摘要

AS A PASSIONATE MEMBER of Minnesota's Cold Spring Granite team for more than 14 years, John Mattke lives and breathes the natural stone industry. Perhaps it's his far-reaching vision for the industry's future or his commitment to debunking myths and misinformation about natural stone that make his fervor contagious. From any standpoint, Mattke's dedication to promoting the industry has not gone unnoticed. As a result, Building Stone Institute (BSI) has named him its 2007 Person of the Year. Recently, Mattke shared his thoughts about the value of BSI, his history and the industry with Building Stone Magazine.
