Founder/Owner

 McGrath Communications is a small firm--deliberately so. From our founding in 1989, we have grown steadily, almost entirely by repeat business and referrals.

Laura McGrath, Principal and Founder

Laura founded McGrath Communications in 1989 to pursue her love of writing and has passion for communication that achieves her customers' goals. In her past lives, she was director of a non-profit community arts center, a community college English instructor, a do-whatever-needs-to-be-done member of a small family manufacturing company, and a stay-at-home mom/grad student. Active in the community, she has served in leadership positions on the boards of directors of a an early childhood center, arts center, chamber of commerce, and regional chapters of the American Marketing Association and Literacy Volunteers of America. She earned her M.A. in English from Alfred University and her B.A. in English from Allegheny College.

Our Other Writers

We contract with other writers to meet fluctuating needs. In most cases, they have not only a depth of writing and strategic communication expertise but also general management experience. We always match our writers with specific customers' needs, and we always bring them into working relationships. There are no scribes hidden away in the back room. Come to think of it, there is no back room!
