At 31, after eight years on the run in Europe and North Africa as an escaped federal 
felon, Ian Jarvis decided to return to the US and face the mess he left behind. He 
wanted to beat a seven-year prison sentence and find a way back on the rails of the 
American dream. At 32, Ian.talked his way into his first job as a salesperson for French 
multinational, Saint Gobain. Hired to open a new market in America for SG's fragrance 
bottles, Ian was so successful that eighteen months later, he was named VP of the 
entire US division. His career took off, culminating in the sale, two decades later, of his 
own company - CMI, manufacturing plastic packaging for Fragrance / cosmetics - to 
another multinational, Pechiney.

There were multiple offers to re-create that level of success for other firms in the 
industry, but he turned them down and embarked on a new career, consulting to 
executives in businesses large and small, about their leadership skills, language and 
culture.

Ian's memoir, The Escape Artist, is set for publication this summer.
