T.W. Fisher opens another pub

Maybe it’s the casual, care-free attire — the Hawaiian shirt and the summer shorts.

Or maybe it’s the Cheshire cat grin, the subtle sense of humor and the can-do air of confidence.

Whatever the reason, Tom “TW” Fisher is one of North Idaho’s most likable success stories. He has a way of simply and seemingly effortlessly getting things done. Without a white shirt and tie.

Fisher does indeed have a reputation, but also a lengthy record to match.

He directed the circulation departments for the entire Hagadone Corp. chain, newspapers stretching virtually coast to coast, and survived a brutal union strike in the process.

He created and managed a nationally acclaimed brew pub, the first of its kind in Idaho.

And after working for years as a real estate agent, he has simultaneously started another pub in midtown Coeur d’Alene.

His secret is really no secret at all — hard work, which he learned from his father/ Ric Clarke , Coeur d’Alene Press. More here.
