LYNN FAHERTY ZIMMERMAN

 I have lived in Bedford with my two daughters and husband since 2010. My team and I run Greet Bedford Magazine (formerly Bedford Living) and I launched North End Living Magazine (now called Stroll North End) in the North End of Manchester in 2018. I have over 20 years of experience in publishing. In 2003, while at Conde Nast Publications, I remember thinking it would be really smart for someone to run a magazine about normal people. Fast forward 15 years and that is what I started to do. I love this concept because the magazine is written by the people reading it, so it is social media in print. The magazine shares positive information, which is quite refreshing today. We offer a new homeowners welcome program and B2B networking. My business partner, N2 Company, also gives towards nonprofits in the fight against human trafficking, meaning every business sponsoring the magazine is making an impact to end trafficking today.
