“Sisters, sisters/There were never such devoted sisters …”
That familiar lyric from the classic holiday movie White Christmas was sung tongue in cheek by glamour girls Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen as they twirled their lush feathered fans and swore undying devotion while warning each other: “Lord help the mister/Who comes between me and my sister.”
It’s common for rivalry to exist between siblings, especially those of the same sex. That doesn’t seem to be the case for Lisa Doherty and Linda Boborodea, who in 2000 left the corporate world to establish Business Risk Partners (BRP), a managing general underwriter based in Windsor, Connecticut, that focuses on specialty lines.
