Heartland Hero

Marian Wascher was headed for a career in business. Then printing caught her fancy. Her shop is now an in-plant model.

Unlike many in-plant managers, Marian Wascher did not fall in love with printing at an early age. In fact, when she was growing up in West Point, Nebraska, printing may well have been the furthest thing from her mind. A self-described "organizer," she studied business administration and accounting, without taking even one printing class.
