#248: Peter Marshall, Cadillac
from Pony Tales Podcast Hosted by Andres Gamboa
Peter Marshall is a 4-summer bookman who went on to work as an attorney in Corporate Law. Peter knew law school was in his future after selling books, and he shares with Andres the many ways that the training on the book field prepared him for finding success in his law firm. Working closely with people gives you perspective, and Peter has lots of experience working with people. Peter and Andres chat about the value of fiction vs. non-fiction books, the art of negotiation, what it’s like to parent with subtle Southwestern principles, their favorite stand-up comedians - and of course, the fabulous stories of slinging books.
