There are many more comments and photos to post about this day, but they’re going to have to wait for just a bit because I’ll have to copy the photos from my camera to my hard drive and I’m too sleep deprived at the moment to make that happen.
That update will include my comments about Dick Orkin’s contributions to this year’s Summit and about sitting in the hot seat during the Critique-A-Spot-A-Thon.
But for the moment, what I’d like to highlight is Nancy Wolfson and her afternoon-long seminar on voiceover. Nancy provided the whole lot of us with an amazing amount of information. Practical. Immediately usable. Beneficial information about how to think about the context of what we’re saying in a television or radio commercial.
Here are Nancy and Dan just before the seminar got underway.
My good friend Ben Wilson is taking part in the Summit this year, so during a break in the afternoon, Ben and I got a quick photo with Nancy.
This was yet another reason why I’ve taken part in 12 straight years of the Dan O’Day Summit. What you learn will make an immediate difference in your professional life.

Two questions. Did Dan O’Day ever defeat the Mikon and what prompted the move from Space Adventurer to ……Actually make that 3 questions, what exactly does he do?
I would’ve been at the event but the restraining order does not allow me within 300 yards of Nancy Wolfson. For the record, I was not stalking her we merely went to exactly the same places at the same time over an 8 year period. Is coincidence a crime? Apparently in the state of California ….
IT IS! I was fitted up I tell yer!!!

Liz,
It will be wonderful to have you as part of this fabulous event next year. And Philip, the answers are: No, but he did defeat the Nikon. Yes and maybe.
As for the restraining order, Hah! I know better and from your own lips, no less.
Be well,
Bob
