Nationally known TV personalities Mitch Laurance and Ann Liguori will team to handle Masters Of Ceremony duties at the 15th Anniversary ING Spring Conference May 22-26.
The historic annual gathering of media and business leaders has chosen an historic site –the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, FL, to host this conference. The International Network Of Golf, a non-profit media-based networking organization, conducts the conference.

Liguori is a nationally renowned TV and radio personality in New York. She produces and hosts the " Sports Innerview with Ann Liguori" syndicated cable show. She is one of only two original WFAN Radio sports talk show hosts still on the air at the New York station, which was the first in the nation to go to an all-sports format in 1987. Her Sunday evening show (9pm-1am) features interviews with top sports personalities, including athletes, coaches, columnists and agents, plus a live chat session (on annliguori.com), as well as calls from listeners. She has published a book - "A Passion for Golf - Celebrity Musings About the Game" featuring a collection of interviews she has done while on the golf course with some of the most successful celebrities in sports, Hollywood, music and business.
