David S. Fry Joins Fry Communications as Chief Technology Officer

“The appointment of David underscores the fact that our role has changed from printer to information distribution agent and befits our motto: Unique solutions for information distribution in print, via direct mail, on the World Wide Web, and beyond,” says Henry Fry.

In 1994, David Fry established a Fry Communications division providing Internet services in Ann Arbor, Michigan. As the Web exploded in the late 90s, the division grew rapidly, and David eventually spun off the group into a separate company named Fry, Inc. Today Fry, Inc. is one of the nation’s leading e-commerce service providers. It processes billions of dollars of transactions per year for companies like Ann Taylor, Crate & Barrel, and Whirlpool. In 2008, David sold the business to MICROS Systems, Inc. but continues to serve as a consultant. He has a PhD in Computer Science from Harvard University and is the son of CEO Henry Fry.
