Jasneek: people who care about people (1209 words)
Tarses resigned last week as president of ABC Entertainment, ending a meteoric rise that at one point made her the youngest person and only woman ever to run a network entertainment division.
Tarses made the move to ABC in 1996 from General Electric Co.'s NBC, where as second-in-command she was the hottest prospect in Hollywood, responsible for "Mad About You" and "Friends," two comedies that helped solidify NBC's reign in prime time.
Tarses was so sure of her standing in the company that she gave a writer for the New York Times magazine permission to follow her around on her job.
