Recollections of Former AO Employees
Gene Lewis recalls the "Ivory Tower"
I recently contacted Gene Lewis (Former President
of AO).
He served at a pivotal period at AO, during the
last period of Warner Lambert's ownership, the 150th Anniversary,
and its sale to M&R. Gene, now 72, is CEO
of Sterling Semi-Conductor, a company which he co-founded. It is located
in the Washington DC area.
In our correspondance, Gene states:
"I enjoyed talking with you and getting the
latest information on the pieces
of AO. My tenure with AO was one of
the high spots of my business career.
Our conversation brought back many pleasant
memories. Thank you for all
your hard work to keep the memory of AO alive.
I just wish we could have
kept the company together, but I guess you
can't expect that in today's world."
Best personal regards,
Gene Lewis
