A part-time consultant to the Society, his need to devote more time to other matters coincided with the Society's desire to expand the BULLETIN under the direction of a fulltime editor. The appointment of Gail Oare as the Society's publications director was announced in the last issue of the BULLETIN. Tim is a financial journalist in New York. In 1982 the Society's then President-Elect, Harry Leamy, AT&T Bell Laboratories, Tim wanted to revive the Society's moribund Middleton newsletter, which had appeared infrequently as a four-page flyer without professional editorial help. He recruited Tim to help write articles about the Society's activities, and Tim gradually assumed more and more responsibility for the production of what was planned to be an eight-page bimonthly, newly named MRS BULLETIN. The newsletter proved to be a vital link between a growing Society and its membership, and the BULLETIN began to grow in size and scope, publishing issues that expanded first to 12, and later to as many as 36 pages, and included
editorials, book reviews, and other features. In the summer of 1984, Tim was named an editor of a new business newspaper in New York, Crain's New York Business. It quickly became apparent to him he could not continue to edit the BULLETIN. Simultaneously, the Society was planning to expand its editorial services, so a decision was made to hire a full-time professional.)
