WINNER: SMALL MARKET

Teresa Mccrary

Teresa Mccrary is head pressman with the Times-herald, which covers Forrest City and St. Francis County, Arkansas.

“Teresa has been with our company for over 15 years and leads an all-female press crew for our publications, which to our knowledge is the only all-female press crew in Arkansas,” said Tamara Johnson in Mccrary’s nomination.

Mccrary, who also writes a weekly history column for the paper, “is a Jack-of-all-trades and can repair just about anything. She has trained several people over the years to work on the press, with her current assistant being a young lady who she trained to operate the press when she can’t be here.”

Johnson continued, “She is willing to go above and beyond her assignments in the press room and in circulation to help out whenever and wherever needed.”

“My operations approach is if we work together as a team, there is always a solution. Here at the Times-herald, everyone is willing to help, and that makes us all stars, really,” said Mccrary.
