Rosalie Bischof, co-founder, had a chance encounter with a gentleman named Bill Brown that led her from being semi retired to co-founder of Together New York. After hearing about his newspaper in Arizona, she felt strongly something like this publication had to be brought to the NYC area.

Also, she is making good use of the skills learned through her career in sales and marketing; ranging from the start-up of “Ellesse USA,” to being Administrative Director of Inter-Care. In her ‘other’ roles, she is known as NANA to her grandson Jason and ROZO to Elayna, Lili & Jamie, the greatest ‘rent a kids’ on earth!

To most people Richard Horton is known as ” Dick.” He joined the Together team for the first issue of the news paper, which was released simultaneously in NYC and San Antonio on AA’s 75th Anniversary.

Maggie Keogh has been working in the new media world for over 15 years, 10 of which were at the Alcoholics Anonymous Magazine, “The Grapevine” as it’s web director.

Terry A. Kirkpatrick, Editor-in-Chief, began publishing as a 10-year-old when he created a hand-written neighborhood newspaper, which lasted for one issue. He wrote humor columns for two college newspapers and then joined The Associated Press, where he became a national feature writer. Moving to Reader’s Digest, he rose over 16 years to the position of managing editor. Since then he has been deputy editor of CIO Insight magazine and has created and launched journals and websites for several management consulting firms. He has written and edited several books on innovation and business, and still writes humor when an editor has a weak moment. His interest in “art of living” articles at The Digest made joining Together a natural move.
