The founder and publisher in 1975 was Philip Davis. At the time he was 23 years old making him the youngest founder of a similar publication. His major influence in starting a senior newspaper was Maggie Kuhn founder of the Gray Panthers. As a 22-year-old reporter, Davis heard Maggie Kuhn speak at Quinsigamond Community College in Worcester, Massachusetts. She talked about being forced to retire at 65.
