Faithful followers may have noticed that we haven’t posted since the death of Gourmet magazine. No, we’ve not been in a state of prolonged public mourning. While we hate to see magazines whither, we have just been too busy to post. Yes, busy!
The office has been humming with new work, responding to (and winning) RFPs, and hiring. […]
Every day I receive an email from one of my favorite writers about design and design history, Steven Heller. Steven Heller has been writing for Print Magazine for a long time and even though he had written that he was not interested in a blog, he’s been blogging daily for Print for over two years.
I met Mr. Heller when […]
It’s All About Education and Communications
I recently received an email from a long-time client introducing me to two of his associates — very bright, forward-thinking guys interested in resurrecting an improved version of Remora. Remora is a defunct gathering of investment advisors and asset managers who met monthly to discuss how both sides could help each other improve their […]

I have been a Yankee fan since I can remember. […]
I recently connected with a very good friend from high school through Facebook. We lost touch over 20 years ago and although I thought about him from time to time, I had no clue what he was doing or where he lived.
A few weeks ago, he emailed to say he was coming in from Seattle for a poetry reading. Let’s just […]
It’s been 18 years since I launched Leibowitz Communications and 18 months since I launched Sugarspun Industries with former employee Allister Klingensmith. I don’t know of any rule of 18’s but it seems like a good time to look at the two companies and how well they play together.
When we launched Sugarspun as a dedicated digital design company, our goal was […]

Yes, we’re a graphic design company, and yes, our conceptual approach to problem solving is based upon visual solutions and yes, we’re a bunch of individuals with an advanced visual aesthetic (we think so), BUT, behind the scenes, it’s the music that keeps us going. If you’ve ever been to […]

Magic, Content and Value
Last Month, Allister Klingensmith (my partner in Sugarspun Industries) and I hosted a roundtable discussion for Gotham Media Ventures on Social Media for Business. There is definitely a buzz in the communications industry about who’s doing what, who’s following who, […]
“Did I read that correctly?”
Well, I wrote it and now I have to defend it.
Yes, the economy is awful and the forecast is gloomy — daily reports of layoffs, scandals, shrinking (if any) profits, real estate crisis, etc. Everywhere we turn, we hear the same news with very few solutions (if any). Some say the economy will rebound once the […]
Leibowitz Communications Holiday Party 2008

Wednesday, December 10th was very special for us. We held our annual Holiday Party at the Manhattan Penthouse. We shared the night with over 235 clients, partners, vendors and friends — people who are dear to us and support us throughout the year. Dawn did an outstanding job organizing the party […]
