Rick Altman has been playing competitive tennis for over 40 years. He is the former managing editor of Inside Tennis magazine and a two-time national champion at the 10.0 mixed doubles level. His day job is as a communications coach and presentations consultant and he has written 15 books on graphic design and presentations. Let's be honest, though: if he were good enough to have played on the tour back in the 1980s, he would have chucked all of this.
