Communication Central owner Ruth E. Thaler-Carter has been giving presentations and helping organize and run events for several years. Versions of her “Getting Started as a Freelance Writer” program have been a hit with more than a dozen writers’ organizations, including the American Copy Editors Society, Editorial Freelancers Association, Association for Women in Communications, American Independent Writers, Maryland Writers Association, National Writers Union, Society for Technical Communication, Society for Professional Journalists and more. Her “Communications Day” program for the Maryland Association of Nonprofit Organizations led to three years of programs for the Pratt Free Library system in Baltimore. Her newsletter seminar was a popular, income-generating program for the Society of National Association Publications (SNAP, now Association Media and Publishing) for several years in both Chicago and Washington, DC. Ruth has served on conference committees for SNAP and the International Association of Business Communicators for events in Chicago, Kansas City, London, New Orleans, New York City and Washington, DC.
