So pleased to finally get the opportunity to sit down with my dear friend Richard Reisman, a wealth of knowledge about all things business related in Orange County. Richard has served as Publisher since 1990, taking the Orange County Business Journal almost literally from worst to first. His personal connection with the leaders of Orange County based corporations, small businesses, universities, and non-profits provides the foundation for the success of the publication.

Each week, the Orange County Business Journal delivers a complete package of news and information on Orange County’s companies, industries and businesspeople. It is comprehensive, authoritative, concise and entertaining. Presented in a lively and accessible format, the Business Journal has become required reading for Orange County executives, managers and professionals—written in an up-tempo, breezy style that reveals the drama, excitement and fun in business.

Richard previously served as a marketing executive at the Los Angeles Times, following an MBA from UCLA and a law degree from George Washington University. A father of two and grandfather of three Richard stays active in his hometown of Laguna Beach, CA.
