Who V Are

Mary A. "Annie" Tobey is Editor and Co-Publisher of V Magazine for Women. Annie’s writing path began as a freelance writer, for the Richmond Times-Dispatch special supplements and for various other local and national periodicals. She published her first book in 1990, For Any Young Mother Who Lives in a Shoe, and later worked as staff writer for International Training Consultants, Inc. and Life Logic, L.L.C. She still does limited freelance work, but V has become the voice for her passion to help women find success and joy. In her free time, she enjoys being active and outdoors, especially hiking, running, kayaking, and trying to keep up with her two active Australian shepherds.

Annie's recent engagements include Career Day at St. Margaret's School in Tappahannock, VA, James River Writers, Hopewell Chamber of Commerce Women's Networking Group, Women in Technology Management of the Greater Richmond Technology Council, and River City Express Network.
