Mary Beth McIver

Mary Beth offers her customers over 14 years of yearbook experience with Taylor Publishing and the Houston Office.

Graduating Cum Laude, she received a BA in Journalism and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Houston, where she was also a writer for the Daily Cougar.  After working two years for an advertising agency, Mary Beth went into teaching and was a yearbook adviser in the Spring Independent School District.

In her years with Taylor, Mary Beth has twice received the Newsfoto Salesperson of the Year Award, as well as Outstanding Sales Associate the past five years.  She was part of the Houston Office when it was recognized as the Taylor Publishing Office of the Year in 1995 and 1999.

Mary Beth appreciates the time and commitment that Yearbook Advisers and their staffs spend on their school's publication.  Because Mary Beth was once an adviser herself, she understands the pressure of deadlines and the importance of reliable and honest communication between the adviser and the representative.  Mary Beth takes great pride in her quick response to her customer's phone calls.  She makes herself available to meet with her customers on a regular basis to train staffs and check pages.  Most of all, Mary Beth enjoys the relationships she builds with her customers, whether a volunteer mom, a school secretary, an aide creating an elementary yearbook, a junior high teacher who meets with a staff of six students after school, or a seasoned high school journalism teacher with a staff of thirty.

Mary Beth is a member of the National Charity League and the Junior League of North Harris County.  She is active in her church and enjoys volunteer work in her spare time.  She has been married for 20 years and is the mother of two children.
