"As the CEO of one largest communication firms in the southwest, I highly recommend Dr. Bill Crawford to any host or journalist looking for a lively guest with something new to say. Having hosted two nationally televised PBS specials, Dr. Crawford is as comfortable in front of a camera as he is on an interview over the phone. However, it is his unique take on the issues of the day that have made him so popular with such publications as the New York Times, Investor's Business Daily, and Working Mother, just to name a few."
