BALTIMORE, Md. (November 1, 2010) — Jeffrey A. Davis, a partner with Baltimore public relations firm Sawmill Marketing Public Relations, has been invited to make a presentation on social media at an upcoming meeting of the Catholic Press Association.

Davis, a former newspaper reporter, will explain how social media has evolved and what some of the current best practices are in the industry and how to integrate tools such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn with an organization’s traditional communications programs. The presentation will take place on Nov. 4 in Baltimore at the group’s Eastern Region meeting, attended by newspaper executives from throughout the region.

“Jeff was one of the first PR professionals to understand and embrace social media as a powerful public relations tool and continues to be a  leading advocate of it,” said Susan J. Anthony, founder and partner of the firm.

He has conducted similar presentations and workshops in recent years, including a meeting in Dallas of CEOs from some of the largest companies in the seniors housing and care industry, a Fortune 50 aerospace and defense contractor, a national meeting of Sales and Marketing Executives International (SMEI), the Maryland chapter of the Public Relations Society of America, and the American Red Cross of Central Maryland.
