Our late founder and editor Joe Graham (RIP), who founded Rushlight: The Belfast Magazine in 1972.

30th January 1944 - 9th December 2021

"when a wise man dies a library burns. But in Joe’s case, I don’t think we have to lament this. His work on Rushlight ensured his knowledge of Belfast’s history and traditions were documented and preserved, and this will live on..."
