PRWeek included USC Annenberg alumna Daphne Wang on its 40 Under 40 list of rising stars in public relations. Wang (M.A. Strategic Public Relations, '09) works at APCO Worldwide in New York City where she handles corporate communications and media relations while using her Mandarin to help both Chinese and American businesses. Wang, who was earning her Ph.D. in music before transferring to USC Annenberg, said she is "grateful every day" that she was admitted to the PR master's program. "I owe so much to the prep I got at Annenberg," she said.
