U S Book Show Keynote Speaker: John Ingram

Looking back at ‘The Family Business’ By Jim Milliot, with Judith Rosen | May 14, 2021 To mark the first 50 years of Ingram Content Group and the company’s first $2 billion year, in 2020 John Ingram, chairman of the board of ICG and Ingram Industries Inc., will talk with PW senior v-p, editorial director Jim Milliot and reporter and former Ingram spokesperson Keel Hunt, author of The Family Business: How Ingram Transformed the World of Books, published in April by West Margin Press, an Ingram subsidiary. In the book, Hunt traces the roots of ICG, the country’s largest book wholesaler, print-on-demand company, and independent book distributor, from its early days, when John Ingram’s father, Bronson Ingram, purchased the Tennessee Book Co., a textbook business, for $245,000 in 1964. Six years later, the Ingram Book Co., the forerunner of ICG, was launched. Following Bronson’s death in 1995, John took over the company.

And PW CEO and publisher Cevin Bryerman was convinced that the magazine could bring its leadership, brand, and marketing reach to set the stage for a new virtual fair.
