Jean Dobbs

I may be one of the last people on Earth who can say I started out as an intern and became the publisher of a magazine. Being the “big picture person” at New Mobility means overseeing content, design and audience reach, while also collaborating with the creative team on a daily basis. While NM has evolved considerably over 30-plus years, I’ve tried to keep its original spirit alive yet flexible as times and editors change. One of my favorite duties is art directing the covers, working with talented photographers and illustrators to accurately portray active wheelchair lifestyle in a way you won’t see anywhere else.
