His files indicate he may have taken over this position from Lawrence Laybourne in 1963 and may have continued in it through 1965.
Steven LaRue is listed in the Department Head Lists as the Managing Director of Time International of Canada Ltd. from 1966 to 1972 although his records indicate he may have held the position longer.
