E. Harold Hugo (1910 - 1985), began working at the Meriden Gravure Company in 1924 while
still in high school, assisting in experiments to improve the collotype process. He was appointed Manager and became Vice President in 1943, and in 1962, President.
After the Meriden Gravure Company merged with the Stinehour Press in 1977, becoming Meriden-Stinehour Press, 
he assumed the position of Chair of the Board.
