As Corporate Secretary and Clerk/ Manager of Corporate and Community Affairs, Sullivan was responsible for planning and executing all corporate events as well as building relationships in the Boston community through employee participation in children’s reading events, ESL adult tutoring, mentoring middle-school children and serving meals to the homeless and disadvantaged.

She also oversaw the collection of historical artifacts of Little, Brown and Company including first edition books, original artwork and antiques, much of which dated back to the early 1800s.
