By Cari Brunelle
September 01, 2006

With more than 30 years in PR, Hank Shafran has experience in all aspects of agency, governmental and corporate communications. But he has seen law firm PR, in particular, from a unique perspective with more than 10 years at Bingham McCutchen LLP, where he has worked on the PR end of six different mergers and seen the firm grow from a 175-lawyer Boston firm to a 950-attorney global firm.

'Being at Bingham McCutchen during the past 10-plus years has been the most challenging and rewarding time of my career,' says Shafran, a member of IABC, the Counselors Academy of the Public Relations Society of America, a former vice president and board member of the PRSA Boston chapter, and a member of the Publicity Club of New England, that awarded him the Crystal Bell Award for lifetime achievement in and contributions to the public relations profession in 2001.
