He is now working on BoxOffice in Hollywood (both print and online); and planning for the next steps for a new magazine for grandparents, Grand. Black works from a small consulting firm in New York, Roger Black Studio (www.rogerblack.com). He's a founding partner in Danilo Black S.A. in Monterrey, Mexico, and the Font Bureau, both started in 1989.
