Richard With was born in Tromsø, the fifth of nine siblings. Even during his schooling at the Tromsø Teachers' College, he regularly traveled between Vardø and Bergen with his father – also a merchant ship captain. After passing his mate's exam in Trondheim, he spent several years sailing on various merchant ships.

In 1875, he moved to Risøyhamn and acquired the local trading post, which he expanded with his commercial acumen in the following years. The money he earned there was the basis for his first ship, the D/S Vesterålen, which he used for his newly founded shipping company, Vesteraalske Dampskibsselskab A/S (VDS), in November 1881 together with business partners. With sailed this ship as captain in the Lofoten waters and the Norwegian coast, gathering crucial nautical information about the coastal waters.

This information gave him the decisive advantage in 1891 when a new state-owned mail ship line between Trondheim and Vadsø was tendered. On July 2, 1893, he embarked on the first Hurtigruten voyage on the D/S Vesteraalen. In 1894, he became the sole director of "his" Vesteraalske Dampskibsselskab A/S. In the following years, the mail ship route continued to be developed and expanded, with additional ships being put into service.

In 1908, at the age of 62, he retired and moved to Oslo. There he devoted himself to other nautical projects. His path repeatedly led him back to Hurtigruten, for example, when new construction projects or the definition of new shipping routes were underway. From 1910 to 1912, he served as a parliamentary representative in Oslo. He died there on February 9, 1930, at the age of 83.

Two Hurtigruten passenger ships were named after him: the Richard With of Vesteraalens Dampskibsselskab, commissioned in 1909, and the Richard With of Hurtigruten ASA, commissioned in 1993.
