Acknowledgments
The Expression Studio applications are designed to work together to create a good pre-
sentation. In the same way, a dedicated group of professionals helped this book to come
together. First, I would like to thank my agent at Studio B Productions, Neil Salkind,
who worked with Stacy Hiquet at Cengage to get the ball rolling. Jenny Davidson was
instrumental in editing and helping to present the content. My assistant Robert Brent
contributed much of the content in the section on Expression Media. And thanks to my
friend Ann Lindner and my daughters Zosia and Lucy for their ongoing support.
