Aprašymas

A New York Times Notable Book

Arthur Gelb was hired by The New York Times in 1944 as a night copyboy--the paper's lowliest position. Forty-five years later, he retired as its managing editor. Along the way, he exposed crooked cops and politicians, mentored a generation of our most-talented journalists, was the first to praise the as-yet-undiscovered Woody Allen and Barbra Streisand, and brought Joe Papp instant recognition. From D-Day to the liberation of the concentration camps, from the agony of Vietnam to the resignation of a President, from the fall of Joe McCarthy to the rise of the "Woodstock Nation," Gelb gives an insider's take on the great events of this nation's history--what he calls "the happiest days of my life."
