WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT HIM
We have come to rely on Don Campbell for a wide range of projects, including press releases and media alerts, contributed articles and speeches. He brings a fresh perspective, clear thinking, and a deep knowledge about many subjects to his writing. Don's talent is unmatched from our perspective. And most importantly, he is someone you enjoy sharing a beer with. - Jennifer Gehrt, Communiqué Public Relations

Don was my go-to writer at The Oregonian, doing some of the best work on what was then the best newspaper features section in the country. He brought a sharp mind, effortless writing and easy editing to every assignment, and was one of those rare journalists who was always on time and never dull. - Mark Wigginton, Senior Editor/Features, The Oregonian (1995-2000)

Now this boy can think; can put himself into YOUR shoes. He knows what has to happen in the capture of your best material, but in a context of truth. But he's not worried about creativity. He'll deliver, he'll expand your expectations. Don can sense where you want to be, and he can get there with a description that you haven't thought about yet. Now don't you want to spend about 15 minutes with a writer and say, "Do you know what I want?" and then have that writer smile and say, "I'm already there." DC can do that for you. I know. I've been there. - Don Olson, Chief Operating Officer/Dragonfly Media LLC; former publisher/This Week magazine

Don Campbell's work is phenomenal. He always strives to turn out the highest work and often does so within tight timeframes. Just last week I called him to enlist his help developing a case study for a technology trade publication. It was due the next day. After a few minutes on the phone, Don knew exactly what I was looking for and completed it within hours. Moreover he has a great sense of humor and a wonderfully positive outlook. He is remarkable. - Colleen Moffitt, Communiqué Public Relations

For years Don Campbell has been one of the Oregonian's MVP freelancers, tackling plum assignments (as well as a few Alan Jackson concerts) with the professionalism, enthusiasm and a dedication to the highest writing standards. - Grant Butler, Oregonian A&E Editor
