$399.99

Up for sale a RARE! The "New York Times" Turner Catledge Hand Signed Announcement Dated 1971. 



for his work at The

New York Times. He was managing editor from 1952 to 1964, when

he became the paper's first executive editor. After

retiring in 1968, he served briefly on the board of The New York Times company

as a vice president. He published his autobiography, My Life and The

Times, in 1971. Catledge was born on March 17, 1901 to his parents, Lee

Johnston Catledge and Willie Anna Turner, and older sister Bessie Lee Catledge,

on his grandfather’s 900-acre (3.6 km2) farm in Ackerman, Mississippi. When

he was three, his family moved to Philadelphia, Mississippi.

After graduating from Philadelphia High School in 1918, he enrolled at Mississippi A&M with a science major. Catledge's

first news job was at fourteen years old for the Neshoba Democrat, setting type. After college, the Democrat offered

him another job but instead he became editor of the Tunica Times (Tunica, Mississippi) in

1922, and later managing editor and mechanical superintendent of the Tupelo

Journal (Tupelo, Mississippi). At

the Journal he campaigned against the Ku Klux Klan, who were most active during this time period; in

response, the Klan burned down the newspaper plant. After

Catledge lost his job due to the Tupelo Journal incident, he

moved to Memphis, Tennessee; there,

he worked for The Commercial Appeal,

the city's daily newspaper. Finally, in the spring of 1929, Catledge began

working at The New York Times,

starting in the New York bureau,

until later when he began work in the company's Washington, D.C. bureau as a reporter covering the U.S. House of

Representatives. In the winter of 1941, he left the New York Times

to become chief correspondent and later Editor-in-Chief of the Chicago Sun. In

1943, he was rehired by The New York Times as a national correspondent. Over

the remainder of his career, he worked for the Times as

managing editor, executive editor, and last as the company's vice president.
