Since Rob Huberman founded his ComteQ Publishing Firm (Margate) he’s gained widespread recognition. One bright accomplishment was publication of a significant book on the history of AC’s Jewish businesses, with many photos and Leo Schoffer the prime backer. Huberman recently entered ComteQ’s “Portrait of Resilience: Holocaust Survivors of South Jersey” in the 14th annual Independent Publisher Book Awards, conducted each year to honor the best independently published titles, and open to publishers worldwide who produce books intended for the North American market. “Portraits” shared a Silver Medal in a tie for second place with a publication by the Byrd Theater Group of Richmond, Va., in the IPPY Mid-Atlantic Best Regional Non-Fiction category. Huberman’s award is an honor and another feather in his cap and portends more national future recognition. Huberman said he and his firm “are profoundly honored.”
