"I had the good fortune of meeting Margaret Barry nearly 20 years ago. Since that time, I have had several working encounters with Margaret, including annual report, magazine, and media projects. On the annual report for Columbia Business School, Margaret and I put our heads together for several weeks to first report, then draft, edit, and re-edit what would become an award-winning piece. That very successful project set the stage for the next two decades of our professional collaboration. On a personal level, Margaret is truly a reliable friend and confidante. Her outlook on life is energetic – relentless and always – always – magnetic in its appeal. It's the very thing that makes spending time with her, either professionally or personally, always memorable and satisfying."

"During my time with Margaret at the American Dental Association, she displayed a unique ability to identify and solve problems in print production, the production of our monthly electronic newsletter and the writing and editing of copy for the Web site. One of the best examples would be what she was able to do with the ADA Member Handbook--one of the ADA's most important and valuable marketing pieces. She redesigned the publication, giving it a fresh, bold and clean new look; she organized and supervised photo shoots in three different cities in order to get better photos for the project; she also met with department heads across the ADA to gather content. This displays excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage a major project."
