One of these welcoming faces belonged to Susan Isaacs, and it was to her I presented my business card with a wishful, “I’d love to interview you sometime about your experience in the book business.” When I followed up later with a note to her publicist, I quickly received a lovely reply from Isaacs herself, saying she’d be happy to talk. She offered to do an interview by phone or in person, whatever I would prefer. Given the opportunity to spend some time with her in person, I chose to make the trip up from our home-base of Philadelphia to meet her.
