Q&A Tom Quadracci -- Rising to Challenges

While ad pages are down, publication work is up at Quad/Graphics. We just began production on National Geographic, the world’s most-recognized magazine title. This month, we begin printing

Sierra, the membership magazine of the Sierra Club, as well as a whole host of titles for Meredith, including Traditional Home, Country Home and Country Gardens. Also, in the first quarter of 2003, we’ll begin producing all of Smithsonian’s magazines, in addition to its catalog, as part of a new five-year contract valued in excess of $30 million. In July, we’ll produce one of the premier fashion magazines in the nation: In Style. The In Style contract is part of a larger Time Inc. agreement totaling $300 million.
