Don
McNair.
An international PR firm admired Don McNair's trade
magazine editing skills, and recruited him to solve client
communications problems. His resulting programs won three
top regional awards in six years, plus the nation’s
premier PR prize; the Public Relations Society of America’s
Silver Anvil. He launched McNair Marketing Communications,
and for 25 years used his well-proven abilities to research
and place accurate and clearly-written articles for national
clients.
He also wrote three non-fiction books. But his first love
was writing fiction. He recalled a frontier novel that greatly
impressed him in High School, and decided
to write its equal. The result was The Long Hunter, a coming-of-age
story published by Medallion Press in June, 2006.
An early reviewer
said the story "gives real insight
into another time and place, into what growing up can mean
when options are slim and every lesson learned the potential
difference between life and death." That recognition
pleases McNair. "It's my career's highest
award," he
says.
