Summary
This collection of excellence, these women who have the quality of excelling, who are constantly and consistently in a state of excelling, who display the condition of excelling, are a special breed. They include those like Margaret Garner who built her businesses, one traditionally thought of as a "man's" business, from scratch; Skye Berry, who is poised to take over Berry and Sons Pest Control, because no one ever told her that she couldn't; Peggy Sutton who built upon her father's legacy and has established a great one of her own; [Cheryl Pearson-McNeil] at ACNeilsen, who helps track what we're seeing on television, and, ultimately, helps shape what we will see; entrepreneurs like D. Michelle Flowers and Merry Berry and who have turned their vision into thriving business.
In recognition of her broad production and managerial skills, [Barbara E. Allen] was invited to participate in PBS' inaugural 2002 Sundance Producers Academy. Her involvement at Sundance subsequently led to her being the only PBS attendee to receive the Corporation for Public Broadcasting's Input Fellowship in Rotterdam that same year. In 2006 she was chosen to attend the prestigious CPB/PBS Producer's Academy in Boston.See the full content of this document
