Interview: HP retiree Zvonko Fazarinc

Just after I finished talking with Art Fong, my colleague Barbara Waugh introduced me to another distinguished HP retiree – Zvonko Fazarinc.

Dr. Fazarinc emigrated from Yugoslavia and started working at HP Labs in 1965. He remembers clearly the impact that Dave Packard and Bill Hewlett’s management style had on Labs – which they used to visit every morning when arriving at work.

Listen to the podcast to hear some amazing stories – such as the time he tried to convince Dave Packard that he found more socialism in action with the HP Way than back home in Yugoslavia!

I would like to get in touch with Dr Fazarinc. I am a friend of Bruno and Darinka Stiglic and we have met many years ago when you were studying at Stanford — you probably will not remember. I am interested in discussing a sensor for metering the 60 cs electric power along the conductors and who might be the right person to talk to at Hewlet Packard or elesewhere. Please call me at 925 683 9254 or 925 837 7612.
