Meeting Jim

The captivating story of Jim Haynes, a networker supreme whose open Sunday dinners in Paris are legendary and whose journey from the US to Edinburgh, London and Paris saw him make contacts and friends wherever he travelled. In one lovely scene he runs through his contact books, all geographically linked. On the way, he inspired all those who met him. This charismatic man – now in his eighties – has been a regular at Edinburgh’s festivals for years and he continues to charm and encourage those who cross his path.
