Aprašymas

Born in rural Georgia during the depths of the Great Depression, John Reginald "Reg" Murphy would go on to lead a long life of success, achievement, and acclaim of which most could only dream. Blessed with curiosity, drive, and natural intelligence tempered by common sense and the modesty of a Southern gentleman, during his career Murphy became a noted journalist and media executive, a staunch advocate for progress and civil rights in the South, a successful businessman, and with his wife, Diana, a generous supporter of worthy causes, the latter recognized by a lengthy list of honors. Beginning his education at Mercer University in Macon, Georgia, Murphy chose journalism as a career, first with The Macon Telegraph and News, then The Atlanta Constitution, the San Francisco Examiner, and The Baltimore Sun in positions of increasing prominence. He later served as president of the United States Golf Association as well as president and chief executive of the National Geographic Society.
