Richard L. Arnold is the founder and President of the Disaster Recovery Journal. Richard has an extensive background in the information system field, ranging from applications programming to systems programming. Some of the companies he has been employed by were: MoPac, Anheuser Busch, and Cincom, which are major employers serving the St. Louis Metropolitan area. He has been extensively involved in the disaster recovery field for the past 20 years. Richard has been innovative in the field of DR, establishing the first Hot-site and Cold-site in the state of Missouri in 1985. Then in 1987, he founded the Disaster Recovery Journal, the first publication dedicated to the field of disaster recovery and business continuity. The first issue of the magazine was 22 pages in size and was distributed to 3,000 people. Today, there are well over 60,000 subscribers and it is over 100 pages in size.

Besides founding the DRJ, Richard also was the co-founder of the Disaster Recovery Institute in 1989 and served as the Chairman of the Executive Board. The Disaster Recovery Institute is a not-for-profit organization offering education and certification in the disaster recovery industry. In August of 1994, Richard retired as the Chairman of the Executive Board of the DRI.

The DRJ also sponsors two annual conferences which began back in September of 1989. The first conference drew in a crowd of almost 250 disaster recovery professionals. Today, both conferences combined pull in over 3,000 disaster recovery professionals from all over the world, which makes our conferences the largest in the entire industry. The DRJ is also proud to announce that the conference fees have never been raised since the first conference in Atlanta in 1989.
