On Oct. 22, PRSA (Public Relations Society of America) Hampton Roads hosted its annual Professional Development Conference with keynote speaker and generational expert Amy Lynch. Her presentation was eye-opening and surprising – mainly because it made so much sense.

We’re thrilled to announce that the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), Hampton Roads chapter has named our founder and president Joel Rubin its 2013 PR Practitioner of the Year.
The honor is even more significant because it’s now named after the late P. Lee Starkey, the ‘father of public relations’ here in Hampton Roads.
Starkey, a legend in the local PR community, earned the first-ever PR Practitioner of the Year award in 1986 and was a mentor when Joel started the business in 1991. Starkey’s widow Earlene and Mindy Hughes, last year’s award recipient, presented a plaque to Joel before fellow PR and marketing professionals during a recent chapter luncheon.
