Bill Shannon - Vice President of Post and Carrier Solutions at Pitney Bowes. Bill is on the front lines of a long forgotten staple of communication, the mail. That's right - not email, or vmail, but actual, physical mail. Bill has been an integral part of the juggernaut that is Pitney Bowes for over 30 years.
