The article informs that the periodical "T+D," is nearing its 60th year of existence, as of January 01, 2004. "T+ D" began as a black-and-white pamphlet for training directors (who, judging from old copies, at the time were assumed to be all men) and has evolved into a monthly 4-color, award-winning magazine that has aspired to be the voice of the profession and the industry. The author began here in a position split between marketing and publications, then moved completely into publications as an associate editor, to managing editor, to editor about five years ago. She came to T+ D as a publishing professional, not knowing anything about training and development. She now knows a lot and learn more every day. Throughout the year, T+ D will note this 60th anniversary with special feature articles, looks back and sightings forward.
