I am quite late in learning of Doug's passing, but wanted to extend condolences to his family. Doug and I enjoyed many great conversations over the years whether on projects in NYC or on Metro North heading home to Westchester. What a delight to be in his company.....what a good man.

I just learned of Doug's passing. I am so very sorry. I considered him one-of-a-kind, both as a person and as a writer/publicist/PR man. We worked together quite closely in recent years in two writing/PR groups. My condolences to the entire family.

It was honor and a pleasure working with Doug at Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum. He expressed such joy sharing his knowledge and his experiences, I treasure the times our paths crossed. My favorite memories are of him in period costume and him discussing his book.
