Historical Synopsis

Dougherty and Associates President, Michael J. Dougherty was brought into the public relations field by the legendary Jay Allen of Jay Allen Public Relations in early 1976 to establish his San Diego office, and subsequently promoted him to the Beverly Hills office. Dougherty remained with the firm through its transition into Allen-Rolontz Public Relations, as an account executive. He then joined Edye Rome Public Relations as Vice-President and Director of Corporate Operations. Eighteen months later Dougherty purchased the company, which ran under the transitional banner of Rome-Dougherty Public Relations until December 1983, when the name Dougherty and Associates was adopted.

 

In 1989, Dougherty joined the publishing company, Jeremy P. Tarcher, Inc. as Executive Director of Publicity, a position he held for over three years. While at Tarcher he represented such bestselling authors as Betty Edwards (Drawing On The Right Side of The Brain), Timothy Leary (Flashbacks), Esalen Institute co-founder Michael Murphy (The Future of The Body), Paul and Sarah Edwards (Working From Home), Julia Cameron (The Artist’s Way), Andy & Katie Lipkis/TreePeople, among others.


In late 1992 he re-established the independent publicity, marketing, and events production firm Dougherty and Associates, following the acquisition of Tarcher by the Putnam Publishing Group, which relocated the imprint to New York. In June 1997 he was named Director of Marketing/Sales/Publicity for Renaissance Media, publisher of Audio Renaissance and Renaissance Books. Renaissance authors Dougherty represented included M.Scott Peck, Chuck Negron, Napoleon Hill Foundation, Larry King, Ellen Kreidman, Peter Bart, Doreen Virtue, among others.


He re-founded the independent publicity and marketing firm Dougherty and Associates in early 2003 following the acquisition of Renaissance by Holtzbrinck Publishers, which relocated the operation to New York.

About

Michael J. Dougherty started with his family in purebred dogs in 1961, acquiring his first Whippet in 1963. By 1974 he was approved by the American Kennel Club for a limited handler's license, attaining all-breed status in 1977 - teaming with his father, Jack Dougherty.  In 1985 Dougherty retired from professional handling to pursue a dog judging avocation. He has judged at shows across the nation such as Westminster (6 times, including Best in Show in 2013), Montgomery County (4 times, including Best in Show in 2007), Morris & Essex, AKC/Eukanuba, Westchester, Philadelphia, Chicago International, Atlanta, Detroit, Beverly Hills, Great Western Terrier, and Santa Barbara. His international judging assignments have taken him and his wife to Australia, Taiwan, Colombia, Sweden, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Finland, Canada, Mexico, and Japan.
