About the Author

The Times is a British daily national newspaper, first published in London in 1785. A daily cryptic crossword is published in the main newspaper, and the Mind Games section in the Times2 supplement contains sudoku, Killer Sudoku, KenKen, word polygon puzzles, and a quick crossword. Richard Rogan, Times Crossword editor, was born in 1961. He comes from Northern Ireland, and attended Coleraine AI and Reading and Lancaster Universities, where he studied French. A crossword addict from an early age, he started compiling puzzles for his parents and gradually started having puzzles published, first in the Listener series in the Times. He became a regular setter for the Times Crossword in 2004, and gave up a career in IT to become the paperโ€™s crossword editor in 2014. He lives in Cheltenham with his wife and young son, and his interests outside crosswords include running and reading, However he is finding that being a crossword editor takes up a lot of his time!
