Mr. Life Insurance for 1975-76 is W. James D. Lewis, president, Canadian operations, of Prudential Insurance of America, who has been elected president of Canadian Life Insurance Association. A mathematics whiz, Lewis never sold a policy directly - but don't remind him of the little oddity, too often.
