Fast forward to 1993, and I was on the media relations team at the Financial Relations Board in Chicago -- at the time, recognized as one of the leading investor relations firms in the U.S. I was assigned to be on the SPSS account. I was able to successfully place CEO Jack Noonan into more than a dozen news articles. In Sept. 1994, SPSS was seeking a new public relations manager. Leveraging my experience with the company a year earlier, I was hired as the company's PR manager (later changed to corporate communications manager to differentiate the addition of another PR person). I spent a little more than two years with the company. I loved working for Mark Battaglia and Jack Noonan, and generating both product and company articles to raise SPSS' visibility in the market.
