Margie Brett – Publisher		John O’Sullivan - Editor
	Margie founded Polo Times in 1995. While working for the sport’s governing body (the Hurlingham Polo Association), she realised that there was a need for better information and news about polo and began by publishing a single A4 sheet. The magazine is now a 100-page monthly publication. Margie is married to IP Lawyer, Hugh Brett. They have three children and three grandchildren.

John’s passion is sports, and his background is as a reporter and sub-editor on a range of local newspapers. Outside of polo, John supports London Irish Rugby Club, Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club and, having been born and brought-up stateside, the Philadelphia Phillies in baseball.
