Founder Christine Crosby is the brains, spark, and energy behind GRAND Magazine since its birth in 2004. The magazine transformed how society views grandparenting. Her mission has remained constant through ups and downs of the Pandemic, the impact of COVID, and even a hurricane that destroyed Grand’s headquarters. Through it all, GRAND continues to celebrate the joys and challenges of the grandparent role in today’s bewildering and tech-savvy world.
Christine is a firm believer that grandparenting is life-changing. It opens new chapters of renewed purpose, love, and diverse needs, while the flipside is also true. Each grandparent has his or her own needs, navigating the transitions that come with elderhood. Exploring these crucial roles is the essence of GRAND, and kudos to Christine Crosby for her leadership and devotion that keeps GRAND in the limelight.
