2009 Printing Industry Hall of Fame: A Forward Thinker

Throwback Yet Visionary

Hayes' biggest influence in printing has been his father, Harvey. As father-son business relationships go, Harvey and Steve Hayes have enjoyed a nontraditional experience.

"Working with him has been a wonderful experience; none of that competition between us like you see so often," he says. "We've always respected and advised each other. He's even let me make some decisions that he knew were wrong, but felt it was a better learning experience for me."
