"I was very happy that my daughter could join our
table on that Friday night. I was proud that she could hear about the history
of our industry, and especially the early days when a handful of people made
a difference that lasted throughout the century. After Friday's dinner, I
also stood a little taller in being able to call business journalism my
profession." -- Linda O'Bryon (with daughter, Jennifer)
Honoree Richard Behar, a senior writer at Fortune, chose to share the evening with a special guest -- Tim Mosso, a 15-year-old journalism student from his alma mater Cold Spring Harbor High School. Behar said he called his former journalism advisor seeking a promising and talented student that did not have "a lot of social or financial advantages."
"I just wanted to give something back," Behar said. "Nobody ever gave me a hand."
Behar said Mosso, who will assume the helm of editor in chief of the high school's paper in the fall, appeared to enjoy the evening. "He and Jerry Flint spent about 20 minutes talking about cars," Behar said, adding that Flint, his first editor, never gave him 20 minutes.
