Hall of Fame--Frick Builds Empires Via M&A, Operations

Building a Reputation
Frick remained at Banta in the role of direct marketing group president until 1994, when his whirlwind career dropped him off on the steps of another heavy hitter—Quebecor. That set the stage for his current vocation with Lehigh.

"I've never sought a position since my first entry-level job at DuPont. I've just been extremely fortunate to be repeatedly recruited," Frick notes. "During the Banta years, as president of the direct marketing group, that was a business segment leader role. I was occupied principally with operations, building the direct marketing group."
