During last night’s PR 2.0 chat (aka #pr20chat), we wanted to shine the spotlight on some of the PR industry’s unheralded stars. We asked participants to recommend at least one person who we should get to know.

Hey Heather! Would like to throw in For Rent Media Solutions PR Guru Meredith Mobley @mmobley for your list! :) Thanks!

hey Heather -- meant to write earlier. This is a good list. Thanks for doing it, giving these smart folks some visibility, etc. I went through and did a big follow. Hope all's well. -Shane

What a fabulous group of people to be listed among! I'm very honored. I definitely found some new people to follow myself! :)

@kmatthews (Kelli Matthews) she is a PR goddess on the University of Oregon campus as well as in Eugene. She knows her stuff and is always willing/wanting to share and help out!

Thank you so much, it's an honor to be brought up in this group of people! I look forward to expanding my network and getting to know everyone else. This is why I love social media, right here. :)

Honored to be a part of this list! I look forward to getting to know others on the list who I don't already follow on Twitter. #pr20chat always initiates great discussion!

Heather / #pr20chat Team
Thanks for the mention - been great getting to know a lot of you over the last six months - hopefully share some more great stuff and have a giggle along the way a long time to come...
Adam

Heather, thanks for a great list! I recognize over half as those I'm already following but there are some "new" ones that I'll check-out.

The one person I would add is @NicholleHinkle - president-elect of Southeast Missouri State University's (my alma mater) newly resurrected PRSSA chapter, and my PRSA mentee. While she's not yet a PR pro, she's definitely an up-and-comer!

Thanks for adding to the list! I don't know Nicholle ... will make it a point to get to know her :)

I was so sorry to miss the live conversation last night-- what a great list the community has compiled! I see many of the future PR stars that I have gotten to know through PRStudChat and (no surprise), some new folks I will have to check out!

Since you asked for additions, I'll add. jesslaw (Sr @ Temple University, PRSSA President, eloquent writer and worth getting to know!)

Also, be surer to check out Andrew Worob's ( @worob ) recent list of communications professionals that deserve more Twitter followers ...http://worob.com/2010/03/08/10-communications-professions-that-deserve-more-twitter-followers/cgflood (it includes my BurrellesLuce colleague and friend, @cgflood!)

Hope to join you all next week... really looking forward to some fun and good conversation with #PRBC rockstar /special guest @PRCog!

Valerie, we hope you'll be able to join in next week. We're really excited to have @prcog as our guest. Always a good time ... :)

Thanks for building on the list with these other folks. Now that this is out there, it strikes me that it aligns with our #chatmixer goal -- connecting with people outside one's typical "bubble." Like you, I discovered some new people this way, too!!
