IPG Mourns Passing of Mark Smith

Born in Illinois and a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Mark spent 10 years with American Printer magazine in Chicago, where he became managing editor. He later served as Midwest editor for Micro Publishing News and also managed Web sites for Cygnus Publishing.

He joined Printing Impressions in the fall of 2000 and immersed himself in the technologies of both the printing industry and internal processes. With an acerbic wit and an unflinching eye for detail, Mark's exacting standards enabled NAPCO to build upon its online brand. Boasting a keen eye for news value, Mark sculpted Today On PIWorld into one of NAPCO's most powerful products, blending printing, publishing and technology news into a well-rounded offering that spoke to the needs of today's printing executives.
