CBPA Rewind
It may not be "six degrees of separation," but
do you know how "America" is connected to
CBPA? The first meeting of CBPA was held in the
conference room at "America" House in New York
in 1987. Furthermore, CBPA's first vice-president,
Patricia Kossman is currently Literary Editor of
"America" magazine.
